I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Saturday morning, the 1st of March, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.
We start off in the Book of Isaiah 55:8. The Lord says:
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord.”
If we go to the Book of Micah 4:12:
“But they do not know the thoughts of the Lord,…”
Folks, we must stop arguing with God. You know, Job, the farmer, I can identify with that man so much. Job was arguing with God, remember? You can go to Job 38 and you will see where the Lord has had enough of the arguments, enough of the senseless continually questioning God instead of believing Him. He says: “Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth?” I just love it - He says, “Stand up like a man and I will question you.” Maybe God is going to question you today, my dear friend, and say, “Where were you when God created? How dare you question God and His integrity and His authority. Let’s stop questioning God and let’s start believing God.
You see, it’s also okay when people come to you and they ask you, “How can God allow this to happen?” You can say, “I don’t know” because you are not God, but that is the time that we can say like the farmer Job when he came to his senses, he said, “Even though He slay me, even though He kills me, yet will I still trust Him”, (Job 13:15), because he knew the heart of God.
Corrie Ten Boom is one of my heroes, that Dutch lady that was put in a concentration camp with her old dad and her sister, Betsy, and her dad died within weeks and Betsy got sick. She was a Christian and Corrie was nursing her on her lap and she was dying, and Corrie was so upset about what was happening. “God, where are You? How can You let this happen to my sister?” And she heard a little voice whispering. She looked down, it was her sister, and the little voice said, “Corrie, if you know Him, you do not have to ask why.”
Let’s stop arguing with God today and start believing Him because He always has our best interests at heart.
Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day,
Goodbye.
