God's ways are definitely not our ways

​
David  has a momentary lapse of judgment as he takes a census to push his power.  It was never his power to push.

He forgot that God is the king and God doesn’t measure power through the usual secular natural means.  Our Supernatural Father uses the small, the meek the humble to be the powerhouses.  What cranks out this power is Trust.   Imagine, by the usage of the rosary, each prayer (rose) is a total scourge to the devil.  If we can only see with enlightened eyes what we really occurs when the rosary is prayed - we probably would be on rosary marathons.

David immediately realizes what he has done and acknowledges his sin.

The punishment is mammoth. Huge to say the least.  So many people’s lives were taken.  In the punishment he chose, 70,000 died.  

It goes to show that being in a position of power is very serious and one must lean on God always.  It’s very easy to get lost and be caught up in self will.  How many will get hurt from our wrong decisions?

The contradiction of it all is Jesus who is God, was disguised in ordinary life.  He was a carpenter, had a family who didn’t really stand out…he was really one of us.   The weak human condition has a flawed wisdom…. we base importance and strength in the extraordinary.  We are looking for the powerful.  

Jesus could do no such miracle in his own place because they couldn’t fathom he was anything else but ordinary.  His works, his miracles his wisdom didn’t matter to them.  Faith was not living in that place, without faith how can you possibly have trust?  

Look in the ordinary things in your life and find God there.  There's an abundance of the ordinary because he wants you to find him always.
