Your thoughts of God are too human. This may be our trouble too. We think of God in the same way that we think about ourselves – as limited and fallible, because we are limited and require information and counseling, we think God does too. We think God as too much like ourselves. Put the mistake right, learn to acknowledge the majesty and greatness of God.
Isn’t it sad that because we ourselves are limited and weak, we imagine that, at some points, God is too. Isaiah does here what a doctor would do when entering the room of a sick patient who has closeted himself behind shuttered windows. He opens the windows, lets in the fresh air and light, and says – no wonder you are sick. You are not taking advantage of the resources that bring healing. Spiritual health comes from seeing God as He is.
