Psalm 147:5

When No One Understands You

05/15/2024

Do you ever feel like no one understands you – truly understands you?

Or perhaps you have thought, “I can’t understand how you could…” in regard to another person’s actions or words?

No doubt, as much as we may love or know someone, we can never get inside another person’s head. Nor can they totally understand us. But God can.

Psalm 147:5 says, “Great is our Lord and abundant in strength; His understanding is infinite.”

The word, infinite, in this passage means innumerable. In other words, the Lord’s understanding of us and everything in the world in time and space is limitless. It is endless and impossible to measure. And the most amazing thing is He loves us.

How can we not run to Him in love and gratitude? Why would we not talk to Him about everything on our heart and mind, knowing He understands us and our situation? Why would we not quietly wait and listen for God’s instructions and guidance? (By the way, when you talk things over with God, it helps to have your Bible so when He stirs your heart you can look up the verses He brings to mind.) It also helps to have pen and journal so you can write down how He instructs you.

When no one understands, remember that God does and He loves you. Run to Him. Pray to Him. Listen to Him. Obey Him.

Heavenly Father and Lord Jesus Christ, You have INFINITE UNDERSTANDING. Thank You for loving me and guiding me.

When No One Understands You

05/25/2021

Do you ever feel like no one understands you – truly understands you?  Or have you ever said to someone, “I don’t understand why you….”? Or maybe you thought, “I can’t understand how you could…”?  No doubt, as much as we may love or know someone, we can never get inside another person’s head. But God can.  Psalm 147:5 says, “Great is our Lord and abundant in strength; His understanding is INFINITE.” God’s understanding is limitless, endless, and impossible to measure. And the most amazing thing is He loves us. How can we not run to Him in love and gratitude? Why would we not talk to Him about everything on our heart and mind? Why would we not quietly wait and listen for God’s instructions and guidance?  (By the way, it helps to have our Bible when we pray so as He stirs our heart we can look up verses He brings to mind.). When no one understands you, remember – God does and He loves you. Run to Him. Pray to Him. Stay near Him.

Heavenly Father and Lord Jesus Christ, You have INFINITE UNDERSTANDING of me and my situation. Thank You for guiding me as I wait in Your presence.

When No One Understands You

05/30/2020

Do you ever feel like no one understands you – truly understands you?  Or, have you ever said of someone, “I don’t understand why you….”? Or, “I can’t understand how you could…”?  It’s true. As much as we may love or know someone, we can never completely, one hundred percent get inside another person’s head. But guess who can? God. Psalm 147:5 says, “Great is our Lord and abundant in strength; His understanding is INFINITE.” God’s understanding is limitless, endless, impossible to measure. And the most amazing thing is He loves us. How can we not run to Him in love and gratitude? Why would we not talk to Him about everything on our heart and mind. Then, wait quietly for His answer, help, guidance. (Tip: It helps to have our Bible close so when He stirs our heart we can look up a verse He brings to mind in response to our situation.)

Heavenly Father and Lord Jesus Christ, You have INFINITE UNDERSTANDING of us and our situation. Thank You for guiding us in the way You know is best.

Do you ever feel like no one understands you; truly understands you?  Or, have you, on the other hand, ever said, “I don’t understand why you….”? Or, “I can’t understand how you could…”?  It’s true. As much as we may love or know someone, we can never completely, one hundred percent, get inside another person’s head. But guess who can? God. Psalm 147:5 says, “Great is our Lord and abundant in strength; His understanding is INFINITE.” God’s understanding is limitless, endless, impossible to measure. And the most amazing thing is He loves us. How can we not run to Him in love and gratitude?

Heavenly Father and Lord Jesus Christ, thank You, thank YOU for knowing us inside and out, for your INFINITE UNDERSTANDING and loving us.

INFINITE in UNDERSTANDING

03/10/2013

“Great is our Lord and abundant in strength; His understanding is infinite.”

Psalm 147:5

Have you ever said, “I don’t understand why….”? Or, “I can’t understand how…”? One of the ways God is described is infinite in understanding. In other words, his understanding is infinite: limitless, endless, impossible to measure.  When we begin to calculate God’s ability to understand us, another person, or a situation; we must not use our limited understanding as a measure of God’s infinite understanding. Rather, we can look in awe to HIM whose understanding is infinite.  

I praise you Lord, for your UNDERSTANDING IS INFINITE!
