Our passage this week is a classic example of the biblical view of the single most perplexing, most haggled-over and wondered-about aspect of life in this world – the sovereignty of God and the free will of man. God is sovereign over all creation. He plans every detail of our lives and His plans will prevail. However, God chooses to work in a world that is very broken and messed up by sin and dysfunction, more so than we can fathom. Yet God is so great and so good that He is able and willing to work with all the broken pieces of our lives. And, in ways about which we can only wonder, He is able to sweep all of it up into His own amazing hands. The result is a masterpiece; a mosaic of God’s own making. How does He do that? We don’t know. It’s a wonder. But there is no worship without wonder.
