I am thankful for the doctrine this scripture teaches.
"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts." (Isaiah 55:8-9)
The doctrine that God, even our Father in Heaven, knows more than I do is very comforting. When I don't always understand the "why" of something this scripture comes to mind. I have found that if something doesn't always makes sense right away with church, or policy, or doctrine, I can be patient and He eventually teaches me His ways.
What a comfort to know that He knows the best ways in a world that is full of change. "Behold, great and marvelous are the works of the Lord. How unsearchable are the depths of the mysteries of him; and it is impossible that man should find out all his ways" (Jacob 4:8). God is way smarter than man is. Therefore, I know I can be confident that I am making good choices as I follow in the Savior's way. And that is a great feeling.

| Again, as I look at the beautiful mountains by my home, God's ways are higher and He knows more than we do. |
