God’s Wisdom is Infinite

God’s wisdom, compared to any human is infinitely greater. That’s a statement of faith. it acknowledges that we keep learning but know that we will never understand everything. God alone knows everything and acts perfectly.

We keep wondering about what ultimately confounds us about the mysteries of the universe and daily life. We try to understand the purpose and meaning of our existence. We see answers to questions about the why, how and when.
Humans are pretty smart. We have been given the capacity for great creativity and problem solving. And yet we do things that are not really great and get us into a lot of trouble because of our shortsightedness or stubbornness.

“For God’s foolishness is wiser than human wisdom, and God’s weakness is stronger than human strength.”
(1 Corinthians 1.25)

So, when you come to believe that God’s wisdom is infinite, you recognize your human limitation and reach for something more complete. God shows us in Jesus the direction and gives us guidance through the Spirit of God for faithful understanding and for acting wisely.

The blogs I am sharing about my insights of the way I see it will always remain imperfect and yet hope to tap into God’s gift of wisdom.
