God’s power and wisdom

“He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heaven by his understanding. When he uttereth his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens; and he causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth: he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.” - Jeremiah 51v15-16

Sometimes it is hard to figure out why we thing the way we do. When we face hard times, difficulties, or challenges we often can wonder if God really knows what is going on or if He really understands. We are totally off base when we get that way. After all, God:

Made the earth by His power
Established the world by His wisdom
Stretched out the heavens by His understanding

Not only that, He did not stop there. Today He:

Controls the clouds and rain
Controls the water cycle
Controls the storms
Controls the wind.

Doesn’t it just make sense that the God Who can do all of this can take care of my little problems?
