Romans 11:33
Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God!
How unsearchable his judgments,
and his paths beyond tracing out!
I remember teaching a lesson in my classroom. It would be a great lesson. I would show them how to do the math problems. We would do the math problems together. Then, I would walk around while they did a couple on their own. I would be so proud of them and send them on their way to finish the problems all by themselves. I would return to my desk or whatever, I needed to do. I would inevitably hear, “Mrs. Frick?” I would look up and there would be a student telling me they couldn’t do the problems. I usually found it wasn’t they could don’t them, they were just afraid to do them themselves. They were afraid of messing up. They wanted me to hold their hand and reassure them every step of the way that they were doing it correctly.
Eventually, my students did have to learn to do things on their own. I couldn’t follow them around for the rest of their lives. God has given us all the tools we need in life. He has even shown us what He expects of us and how to do it. Micah 6:8 He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. We can deal with the problems. The best part comes in today’s verse. We have the depths of His wisdom and knowledge of God. In other words, unlike me leaving my students, He will never
leave your side. We always have Him to walk with and do the problems with us!
Lord, I will forever be that kid saying I can’t do it. Thank You for always being there to do the problems with me. ~amen
