We live in a world where everything has a price. Everything is a commodity to be marketed and sold. Our lives are accounted for in ways that keep track of debits and credits, what we pay and what we owe. This is so deeply woven into our ways of thinking that we treat God in the same way. Divine favor and blessing are to be earned. Bad things happen because we have not attended what we owe God. Into this transactional world, God speaks and says, “My ways are not your ways.” (Isaiah 55:8) Thank God, for that.
