Contemplation (verse 34): “It is clear that only God knows everything and it is only he who lacks nothing, because everything comes from him. No one can understand or measure this knowledge, because the inferior cannot comprehend what is superior to it. Jewish believers could not understand that the salvation of the Gentiles could be God’s plan and will. Likewise, it seemed unlikely and incredible to the Gentiles that the Jews, who had not believed, could be converted or accepted as believers.” (+ Ambrosiaster)

Personal Reflection: Do you find it hard to trust God when you don’t understand His plan? How can you practice worship even when you have questions?

Bible Knowledge Question: How should we respond to the greatness of God’s wisdom and mercy?

Prayer: Lord Jesus, Your thoughts are higher than mine, and Your ways are beyond what I can see. Teach me to trust You, especially when I don’t understand. Fill my heart with praise instead of pride, with worship instead of worry. Everything I have comes from You, and everything good leads back to You.
