God has a gentle way of reminding us that He is in control. Last week in Beaumont, Texas a tornado popped up without any warning. The tv weathermen were all trying to figure out how they didn't see it coming. One of them finally admitted that sometimes things were out of their control. Sometimes?
Giving God control of all things...big or little makes life a little less stressful. When you aren't in control, your only obligation is to do what you're told...to obey. Well, that's exactly how it is with God. People ask "How do I know what God is telling me to do...how do I know what to obey?" When you begin reading God's Word you become familiar with His voice, His commands, His Words, His direction. It doesn't mean that you'll never go another way, but it does mean He will guide you if you give Him control.
Just like the weathermen in Beaumont, don't be surprised when God pops in and does something unexpected. It's just a reminder that in this world of crazy control freaks and manipulators, He really is still in charge of everything!
Psalm 150:1: Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.
****Here's a little reminder about the CBC Bus Blitz tomorrow morning at 9am. Small amount of time...big progress made in letting our community know about Christ. Come join us!
