PHPsalms 33:11 (KJV) The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
We often think we can figure everything out by our own reasoning. We look to our own innovations to improve our lives. And though our philosophies change with each generation, our world really doesn’t improve. But God is timeless, and He calls us to center our wisdom not on our own shifting thoughts, but on His steadfast and timeless plans, which endure forever.
Lord, when I look at the world, I see that it is as broken as it has ever been. All of the knowledge and learning that we have accumulated has not brought us peace and righteousness. Your wisdom alone is enduring, Lord. And Your plans alone are steadfast. So teach me to rely on Your word and Your truth, so that I may find my way within the purposes of Your heart. In Jesus’ name, amen.
