Isaiah 55: 8, 9:“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, declares 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.” Usually this passage is understood as God’s assertion of His transcendence; His proclamation that He is infinitely far above us. While He truly is all that, the context of this scripture is a call to repentance (vv. 1-3, 6). The cry is more, “Why aren’t My thoughts your thoughts? Why do your thoughts dwell on wickedness and unrighteousness?” Today, let us elevate our thoughts as we listen to God’s, and make them our own!
