Submission

I have been thinking a lot lately about the theme of submission in several different ways. First and foremost, submission to God. I find that one of my favorite things to meditate on and realize is that God is God and I am not. His ways are so much higher than my ways, and His thoughts are so much higher than my thoughts. For me to say, "God would not do this or that (even when it is clearly in His Word) because that is unfair or unequal" is basically me judging God, putting myself in the place of Him, subjecting God to my opinions, belittling him, and saying my ways are higher than his ways. How utterly wicked this is!
