Biblical Answer

When we encounter something that doesn't make sense, it can be unsettling and challenging to our understanding. In the context of faith, this can be particularly difficult. However, we must remember that our finite minds are not equipped to fully comprehend the mysteries of God. As the Bible says, "The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever" (Deuteronomy 29:29). This means that there are aspects of God's nature and plan that are beyond our understanding, and that's okay. We can trust that God is sovereign and that He is working everything out for His glory.

When we're faced with something that doesn't make sense, we can try to break it down and analyze it step by step. This can help us to better understand the issue and to see how it fits into the larger context of our faith. For example, if we're struggling to understand the concept of God's sovereignty, we can explore what the Bible says about it and how it relates to our daily lives. We can also talk to others who have wrestled with similar questions and seek their insights and perspectives. By doing so, we can gain a deeper understanding of God's plan and purpose, even if it's not fully comprehensible to us.

Ultimately, our goal is not to understand everything, but to trust and obey God. As the apostle Paul wrote, "For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known" (1 Corinthians 13:12). We can trust that God is working everything out for our good, even if we don't fully understand it. By seeking to understand and by trusting in God's sovereignty, we can find peace and confidence in our faith, even when things don't make sense.
