GOD IS NOT A LOGICAL THINKER

25 June, 2023
God is not a logical thinker, yet he created man to be. 

Proverbs 3:5 ESV 

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.


I am God and my ways are not your ways as I am the creator of all things above the Heavens and the Earth.

The mind & wisdom of man is logical and limited, but the mind of God is abstract, agile, and without limit.

Here is a little story about your ways and God's ways. 

Alex was a man of faith, and he was the type of man who loved God with all his heart. Alex was obedient, faithful, and righteous in the eyes of the Lord.

One day Alex was heading into a coffee shop when on his way to the entrance, he saw a man who was homeless asking people for spare change. God would always speak to Alex often and had the type of relationship to put things on Alex's heart when called for (obedience). This experience with Alex and God was not unfamiliar as this was extremely normal for Alex, but this time around things took a turn for the unexpected. Alex had $4 in his pocket at the time just enough to buy a cup of coffee and a bagel before his 12hr shift at work. As kind-hearted and God-fearing as Alex is he knew his father and he knew there could be nothing more heartwarming to God when he sees his children (poor) being cared for by a blessing from another who is also his own (Alex).

While heading towards the door and seeing the man sitting at the entrance he suddenly stopped for incoming traffic from inside the parking lot as a man in a Lamborghini pulled into the parking lot next to Alex. This car was quite the show stopper and Alex knew the person in this car was a person of value and wealth. As Alex refocused on heading to the door entrance and proceeding to reach in his pocket to provide the homeless man the spare change he originally meant to use for his bagel God yelled Alex's name.

God: Alex! Do not give this man sitting at the front door the two dollars for I have other plans for you to do with it.



/Break for Conversation:

(Now I understand as people of faith who love God with all our heart and who are familiar with his ways that this scenario does not make any sense. I am pretty sure normally if any of us would have experienced such a thing hearing God's voice and telling us not to help someone who is in need that this would surely be Satan himself in sheep's clothing and an Angel of Light in disguise. I assume that Alex knows and speaks with God often; this was not the case because his discernment of knowing when it is God and when it is not is at a supernatural spiritual high peak level.)



Continuing story:

When Alex finished hearing what God had to say he was thinking of what to say to the man when he asked him for spare change. As awful as this sound and how illogical it seemed. Alex's obedience to God was more important than what logically made sense to him because he knew that God was not a God of logical thinking, but he made man to be so. Alex aborted his mission to help the homeless man but he was not going to be a person who avoided eye contact. The homeless man said good morning to Alex and he responded as well but the funny thing is the homeless man did not ask Alex for any change as he was doing with others.

As Alex finally made it into the cafe ready to order his coffee and bagel he had the urge to use the men's restroom out of nowhere. So he asked for the restroom location as this cafe location was his first time and the staff pointed and guided him in the direction of the restroom.

Now as for the man with the Lamborghini who approached the front entrance the homeless guy asked for spare change from the man who wore clothing that looked like he walked out of a GQ Magazine for men. 
The wealthy man said to the man kindly that he could not help him, and entered the front entrance to order whatever his heart desired. 

As Alex arrived from the bathroom he was now second in line to the wealthy Man. It was time for him to order and he just asked for a cup of coffee. The cashier said that it would be 2 dollars, and the wealthy man glady reached into his pocket for the roll of dollar bills he usually keeps on him but this time it was not there. He checked his left pocket and his right. He checked the rear of his pants, the top of his coat, and the top of his inside button-down silk shirt, and there was no luck. The search ended up looking towards the floor. As awkwardly as he was looking for someone who just left a Lamborghini he told the cashier I will just use my card instead but the cashier said to the man that unfortunately we don't accept cards only cash. Now this experience left all doors closed for this wealthy man and it was then that God spoke to Alex's heart. It was at this moment God yelled Alex's name again.

God: (Alex! Use the 2$ dollars you were going to use for the homeless man as this thing you will do will please my heart!)

It was Alex's first time he spoke back against God. Alex (Wait What!!) could not believe what God had just said to him! He wanted him to purchase coffee for a man that could buy the whole store including him! As always he was a man of obedience and faithfulness even in times that was not logical to his own understanding and own belief, because he knew that he should never lean on his own understanding as his ways are not Gods. God specifically told Alex to bless the wealthy man and to say specifically these words when he paid for his coffee. Alex said "Excuse me, sir! God put it on my heart to bless you this morning. Please allow me to pay for your coffee." The wealthy man's eyes started to tear up as he was struggling with his faith in God in his own private spiritual walk this man knows God but had walked away, but he was in the midst of his reconnection with God, and he knew in his heart that this was God acknowledging his presence and his love for this man. As the wealthy man was tearing up in the eyes before he left he told Alex thank you as this experience was God teaching this man grace and kindness and love. Alex blessed the man on his way out saying to him God bless you, my friend.



As the wealthy man was heading back to his Lamborghini, that little experience that he just had encountered through Alex with God transformed his heart to also be a blessing to someone and he wanted that homeless man to as well experience the grace of God. The wealthy man approached the homeless man and said to him, I did say to you I did not have anything to give but tomorrow I certainly will. The following next day the wealthy man came back as a regular to this cafe and saw once again the homeless man, but this time he bought him coffee and food and had an intimate conversation regarding his story of how he became homeless and it was absolutely a heartfelt story. As this wealthy man got to experience this homeless story through his words the wealthy man ended up more than just providing this homeless man just coffee and a meal, it ended up being this homeless man last day being homeless, and was not homeless anymore by the blessing the wealthy man had done for this person who had nothing which till this day he now has much.



No one ever encountered the homeless man again, and this homeless man ended up being a financial blessing to others as well who were in his situation and even started a private organization for the homeless which led to a nationwide success, and it all started with Alex.



This is God not being Logical but being complex and abstract and just being God.
