Have
you ever wondered why things don’t go as planned? During the course
of our lives literally thousands of things happen to us; things that
no one could have ever anticipated. Good things, bad things and
everything in between. Trying to make sense of it all can literally
drive a person crazy. That, of course is how the world thinks –
Christians know better. The Bible says...
Proverbs
14 ( World
English Bible )
Jeremiah
10 (WEB)
23 Yahweh,
I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man who
walks to direct his steps.
2
Peter 1 (WEB)
3 seeing
that his divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to
life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us by his
own glory and virtue; 4 by
which he has granted to us his precious and exceedingly great
promises; that through these you may become partakers of the divine
nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world by
lust. 5 Yes,
and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your
faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence,
knowledge; 6 and
in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control patience; and in
patience godliness; 7 and
in godliness brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love.
Romans
8 (WEB)
28 We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose.
Godly
people know that we can’t do it on our own, we need God’s help.
And God does help! Through his word, we gradually change into the
person HE wants us to be and do what HE wants us to do. Our
faithfulness to his expressed word (The Bible) will result in a God
directed, Christian life. His plan for us will never fail, never
falter.
Perhaps
you have tried doing things your way; try seeking God’s will for a
change. You will be glad you did!
