For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways, says 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 fact that our Heavenly Father really does know what is best for us means we can trust Him to give us exactly what we need---even if it isn't what we think we want. He is the master planner. He orchestrates world events to further the purposes of His kingdom, and to secure the best possible inheritance for the family He loves so much. Believers can rejoice and relax as they carrying concerns to the throne room of grace.The Lord will cause everything to "work together for their good". (Romans 8:28)

Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.  And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him. – I John 5:14-15
