Isaiah 28
27-29 And at the harvest, the delicate herbs and spices,
the dill and cumin, are treated delicately.
On the other hand, wheat is threshed and milled, but still not endlessly.
The farmer knows how to treat each kind of grain.
He’s learned it all from God-of-the-Angel-Armies,
who knows everything about when and how and where.
The Message was better for me today. Just seeing the analogy here is helpful to reflect on the fact that God knows everything single detail about me. He knows what buttons need pushing and what circumstances I can handle and those I can't. I can and should trust him with ALL aspects of my life so that I make the most of the time he has given me here on earth before His harvest.

I picked a similar verse.

Again, the recurring them of God knowing all. And me, trying to pretend like I understand the next 10 seconds. One is the ultimate wise, and the other is the potential for foolishness.
