Divine Input

God knows how many hairs are on Micah's head? (Lk 12:7) That really is all-knowing. It's probably easier for Him for to count mine, especially now that I'm over 50. But why should He care? God is transcendent?  OK. It's believing that God is here and cares about us that's tough. Believing in a God who is all-powerful – that's easy. Believing that He cares about me today – really? I know He made the universe, it's my over-sized ears and under-sized shoulders I wonder about.

God inspired the writers of the Bible - and the Bible is true in everything it teaches. I can buy that. But that God can inspire me – that He can and does whisper Divine input to guide my day-to-day life - that's a harder truth to purchase.

Have you never heard? Have you never understood? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of all the earth. He never grows weak or weary. No one can measure the depths of his understanding. He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless.  Even youths will become weak and tired, and young men will fall in exhaustion. But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint. Isaiah 40:28 (NLT)
