"For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night."
Psalms 90:4
It's humbling to consider how much more vast God's perspective is compared to ours... and though it isn't always fun, it's probably a wise thing to remember now and then, since we tend to get big heads and think that we know best and that our ways makes more sense than God's way. ... But he can see eternity, and we can't. Any flaws that we see in the plan are flaws in our own vision. That's doesn't mean that we have to follow blindly--God wants us to learn his ways, and is willing to teach us. We just have to understand how limited we are as we approach all of this, and look to God as our teacher, coach, and father, not as an equal or lesser being that needs our instruction.
Today, let's "consider [our] ways" (Haggai 1:5), and remember that God's ways are higher (Isaiah 55:9).
