A portion of my 'undoing' this week has been this verse from Psalm 131. "I do not concern myself with great matters or things too wonderful for me." False humility? Maybe. Selling myself short on the 'lets' ponder great things' front? Probably. But here is the thing - The more I learn about faith, the closer I draw to Jesus, the less I truly understand. The more I try, the deeper the waters run. Which is amazing; it speaks of the nature of God. He is more than we can truly comprehend, yet He stoops low to allow us glimpses and glances and flashes that speak of His grandeur. The more I try to 'do', the more undone I become. Part of the plan, I suppose. Application? I'm not sure today. Maybe it means that there are things we do not understand and cannot comprehend fully -- the hows, the whys, etc. But we cling to the thing that is truly greater than our abilities -- Jesus -- and trust that He IS concerned with such things and has the power to take care of business. That is enough for me today.
