Job 26:13-14 (NIV) 13 By his breath the skies became fair; his hand pierced the gliding serpent. 14 And these are but the outer fringe of his works; how faint the whisper we hear of him! Who then can understand the thunder of his power?"
Jeremiah 9:24 (NIV) But let him who boasts boast about this: that he understands and knows me, that I am the LORD, who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight," declares the LORD.
1 Corinthians 2:14-16 (NIV) 14 The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. 15 The spiritual man makes judgments about all things, but he himself is not subject to any man's judgment: 16 "For who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct him?" But we have the mind of Christ.
Psalm 119:144 (NIV) 144 Your statutes are forever right; give me understanding that I may live.
Because our understanding is earthbound... human to the core... limited... finite... we operate in a dimension totally unlike our Lord... who knows no such limitations. We see now. He sees forever. Charles R. Swindoll (1934- )
