Things I Don't Understand

“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”

Hebrews 11:1

Today I want to share with you, a bag full of things I don't understand. CDs: I don't
understand CDs. When I look at them, I can't see any songs in there, but when I put one in my
CD player, I hear beautiful music. I don't understand it, but I know it works!
I don't understand how He did it, but God put a song in my heart. When I am sad, there is a
song to cheer me up, and when I am happy, there is a song to praise Him. I don't understand
how He did it, but I know it's there.
TELEPHONES: I don't understand how I can pick up a telephone and talk to someone
hundreds of miles away from me and they can talk to me. Oh, I know about telephone lines and
fiber optics, but I still don't understand how it works, but I know it does!
I don't understand prayer. I don't know how I can talk to God in Heaven and He can talk to
me. I don't understand it, but I know it works.
MEDICINE: I don't understand how medicine works. When I take a pill, how does it know
where to go and what to do when it gets there? I don't know how it works, but I know it does!
I don't understand how God can heal the deepest hurt and pain in my life. I don't know how
He does it, but He does!
CALCULATORS: I don't understand how I can push some buttons on a calculator and it will
give me the answer to a problem. I don't understand it, but it works!
I don't understand how God has all the answers to the problems of my life. I don't
understand it, but I know He does!
FLASHLIGHTS: I know this seems simple, but I don't understand flashlights. I know there is a
bulb and batteries, but I still don't understand why it works, but I know it does!
I don't understand how, but I know that in the darkest days of my life, God is my light. I don't
know how He does it, but He lights every path I take!
REMOTE CONTROLS: I don't understand how I can sit in my easy chair and control my TV or
VCR all the way across the room. I can change channels, adjust the volume, fast-forward, or
reverse. I don't understand it, but I am in complete control!
I don't understand how God can sit on His throne in Heaven and control everything here on
earth. I don't understand it, but I know that God is in control!
Let’s pray.
Heavenly Father, Thank You, for being our All-powerful, All-knowing and All-Loving God!
Thank You that we don't have to understand Your many awesome ways. Thank You that all we
need to do is to trust and obey and know that you are the One in control.
In the Name of Jesus, we pray, Amen.
