As we become more educated, we feel that we must be able to explain everything. But yet, there are so many things we can never explain. It frustrates us when we are unable to justify why or how things occur. Ever wonder why you are in the situation you are in? Can you fully explain it?
Paul captures it best in Romans 11:33 - "O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!" And Isaiah 55:8 tells us "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD." So it appears that it is hopeless for us to ever understand what God has in store for us or why we are in a situation that boggles our mind.
But Jesus provides us comfort in our confusion. He tells us in Matthew 7:7-8 - Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. What a comfort! Even when our education leaves us confused, God will provide us answers when we seek him.
