Romans 11- God's Unsearchable Ways

32 For God has shut up all in disobedience so that He may show mercy to all.

33 Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and unfathomable His ways!

Romans has been a wonderful reminder of the incredible Grace and Mercy of our God. Salvation is mind-blowing in itself, but in this section Paul speaks of God's plan to allow us (outsiders, not His chosen race, the Jews) to take their place in part. Because of the Israelite's rejection of the Messiah God uses us to draw them in.

How amazing are God's plans? How incredible are his mercies? I am thankful that God has control in our World! Though I often do not understand his plans, or the reasoning behind what is happening, I take joy from this passage knowing that God is Soverign, and has perfect wisdom.
