The ways of the Lord are just and wise, beyond the thoughts of mortal men, beyond all who would foolishly seek to judge their God.
For as what seems unjust to a child is wise to a parent, so is what seems unfit to a man wise to our God. And as a trusting child shall know the wisdom of of their parent, so shall a wise man faithfully learn the wisdom of the Lord.
Do not test the Lord your God nor judge his statutes. Discern his ways wisely and with humility, recalling at all times that his is God.
For if a thing seems unfit to we of the fallen realm it is not by a mistake of God merely because we do not comprehend his ways. Recall at such times that ours is a mortal perspective, limited to the temporary passions, needs and desires of a passing life.
Discern the ways of God thoughtfully, with prayer and faith, knowing that the perspective of God sees all things in all ages, past, present and future.
For we are children before our God, infants in the works of our own creation, physically formed but yet growing in thought, knowledge and wisdom.
We are not the ones who would foolishly judge God for we do not know the foundations of the cosmos, the workings of the universe, nor the events of the future. We are the image of God, yet early in our formation, yet needful of his guidance, humble in our knowledge and forever searching of his ways.
