Therefore once more I will astound these people with wonder upon wonder; the wisdom of the wise will perish, the intelligence of the intelligent will vanish.”
Isaiah 29:14 NIV
For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength.
1 Corinthians 1:25 NIV
"If someone slaps you on your right cheek, let him have the other" taught Jesus. Come to think of it and sounds so damn foolish right? Today if a colleague at work gossips about you, perhaps you'd reveal the entire truth about the colleague to everyone. Or maybe your spouse said something hurtful to you, the easiest thing to do, would be to go back into the past and remind your spouse about how he/she did the most hurtful thing. Where then does the wisdom of God fit in?
If we see ourselves in the light of God knowing that the colleague or spouse is us, and their behaviour is the sin in our life and the one we are hurting is God. Then we'd understand that if God retaliated the way we did we wouldn't be here. God is love and that's the way he continues to respond even to the extent of sending His only Son to die, so that we His creation will be saved, perhaps that is why it is written that God's foolishness is wiser than the wisdom of the wisest human.
I pray that God the Father gives you the knowledge and understanding of His Eternal wisdom in Christ Jesus and may you bear the gifts of His Holy Spirit. Amen
God Bless you and your loved ones :)
