Day #14

God is so unpredictable! Here it is snowing in Virginia in mid-December! It is not wintertime . . . according to the calendar anyway! January and February are our usual cold spells. All we could do was behold the beauty of a world covered with a beautiful white blanket.

Okay, God’s love is very predictable! You can rest assured that He loved you yesterday, that He loves you today, and that He will love you tomorrow! You can trust His grace and mercy! But when I saw the snow falling so abundantly and incessantly, I felt a Yeshua moment where God said, “I will come in ways you will not expect because I am God; no one will be able to put me in a box. After all, I came in a manger (sukkah), when the sages expected a kingly advent! I died a despicable death when my people expected me to reign in royal glory. And just as snow falling in Virginia in mid-December is an anomaly, so will my coming be!” Predictable love! Unpredictable God!

Abba, thank you that you do not move the way we expect you to. You are God; we are not! Your ways are not our ways; your plans not ours! But we can rest assured in the fact that your unpredictability is ALWAYS predictably good! Hallelujah! Be God! Surprise us with your wonder! Surprise us with your beauty, so that all we can do is sit back and bask in the awesomeness of an unpredictable God! Hallelujah & Amen!
