1469) There is a need buried deep inside each of us; it is the need to be understood. We turn all different ways to find somewhere we can know someone understands us. When we say things poorly. When we don’t use enough words. When we use too many words. When we coat these words with fire or ice. Is there anyone who can understand me and what I meant, even a quarter of the time? Yes! There is.
Isaiah 40:28 tells us God is an endless supply of understanding. No matter what image we have of God in our minds, Isaiah tells us many things about who God really is and what he’s like. Isaiah also mentions God possesses an incomprehensible depth of understanding.
The next time you feel misunderstood, underappreciated, or not listened to, go back to Isaiah 40. There is great comfort there.
