WHOSE UNDERSTANDING DO WE TRUST?
I read this morning in Isaiah 29:16,"Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter's clay: for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the thing framed say of him that made it, He had NO UNDERSTANDING?"
Truly God has fashioned the male and female bodies awesomely and wondrously (Psalm 139:14). In fact, we don't have to be very intelligent to see that a predominate part of the female body is for the purpose of childbearing. Our womb, (the divine sanctuary where God plants an eternal soul to grow, develop, and come forth into this world,) is our most distinguishing feature as a woman. And God also designed breasts to nourish the life that comes forth.
And yet, thousands of men and women in our society today spurn the intricate design of their Creator. Men vasectomize. Women sterilize. They make sure their womb cannot function, even though it is the very spring of who God created them to be.
Does God have no understanding? Or, is it we who have no understanding?
