Do you ever wonder?
Do you ever just ask “why?”
Do the “hows” and “whats”, the “whos” and “whens”
Invade your peace of mind?
Do you ever look for answers
Where answers don’t exist?
Do the unknowns and the question marks
Leave your heart with angry fists?
Do you ever want to run away
When the path still isn’t clear?
Do doubts leave clouds that fog your soul
And morph your faith to fear?
Mortal minds want answers
Things our eyes can see
To trust in what our hands can touch
In what’s easily perceived.
But behind this veiled reality
Of the obvious we seek
Are the workings of the Great Unseen
If we only take a peek.
His ways are not like our ways
His thoughts not like our own
Imaginations cannot conceive
What He has always known.
His hands are always working
His heart the stimulus
His mind holds plans and wondrous dreams
Of a future good for us.
Do you ever wonder?
Do you ever just ask why?
We doubt “Who” holds the answers
“When”, “what”, “how” in His mind’s eye?
“I know the plans I have for you,”
“Plans for future and for good.”
From His lips to trusting ears
Put our questions where they should…
Jeremiah 29:11 – “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
Romans 8:28 – And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
