Our lives are not left to chance

Your life may feel like total chaos right now making no sense to you, maybe you're looking for explanations or a way out of a situation, maybe you're trying to find a purpose or you just need hope!

We will never find the answers we're looking for in mankind.

We have to understand life is not a problem to be solved, it is a mystery to be lived, and only God knows the end from the beginning, we have to trust God, as He works His will in our lives and those around us, we are in His hands.

Only God can change a heart, and the heart of the issue with our world is this, everyone believes they can do life without God and therefore they live as they please believing they won't answer to anyone except themselves for their behavior.

When we learn to pray about everything more than we complain, when we learn to trust God's wisdom, mercy, and love for us, when we ask God for wisdom, provision, and protection, we will have better spouses, better children, better bosses, better Pastors, better Government , yes if we pray more than we complain then God will change all of our hearts as our will lines up with His.

Why would we trust ourselves over God? He sees the end from the beginning, He is over everything and everyone, who wants to leave their life to chance when we can leave our lives in God’s hands.

We use prayer as nothing more than an emergency call to God, when prayer should be constantly on our hearts and lips, taking all things to God for His help and direction.

I have great peace and gather great strength daily, knowing The Holy Spirit is praying for me when I can't and Jesus is interceding for me at the throne of His Father, this gives me hope to press on, a purpose to live for Him.

It is easier to cope in this world, knowing Christ is with me, is looking out for me, and that I am safe in Him, there is no greater or safer place than His hands, my hope, my life, my family, my friends are all in His hands, I have learned to leave them there, pray over them all and watch God do great things in us all.

God’s word says this:

“Trust in the Lord and do what is good; dwell in the land and live securely. Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act, making your righteousness shine like the dawn, your justice like the noonday. Be silent before the Lord and wait expectantly for him; do not be agitated by one who prospers in his way, by the person who carries out evil plans. Refrain from anger and give up your rage; do not be agitated — it can only bring harm. For evildoers will be destroyed, but those who put their hope in the Lord will inherit the land.” Psalms‬ ‭37:3-9‬ ‭CSB‬‬

A person’s steps are established by the Lord, and he takes pleasure in his way. Though he falls, he will not be overwhelmed, because the Lord supports him with his hand. I have been young and now I am old, yet I have not seen the righteous abandoned or his children begging for bread. He is always generous, always lending, and his children are a blessing. Turn away from evil, do what is good, and settle permanently. For the Lord loves justice and will not abandon his faithful ones. They are kept safe forever, but the children of the wicked will be destroyed.” Psalms‬ ‭37:23-28‬ ‭CSB‬‬

“Remember this and be brave; take it to heart, you transgressors! Remember what happened long ago, for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and no one is like me. I declare the end from the beginning, and from long ago what is not yet done, saying: my plan will take place, and I will do all my will.”Isaiah‬ ‭46:8-10‬ ‭CSB‬‬

“For it is God who is working in you both to will and to work according to his good purpose. Do everything without grumbling and arguing, so that you may be blameless and pure, children of God who are faultless in a crooked and perverted generation, among whom you shine like stars in the world,” Philippians‬ ‭2:13-15‬ ‭CSB‬‬

“And we exhort you, brothers and sisters: warn those who are idle, comfort the discouraged, help the weak, be patient with everyone. See to it that no one repays evil for evil to anyone, but always pursue what is good for one another and for all. Rejoice always, pray constantly, give thanks in everything; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. Don’t stifle the Spirit.” 1 Thessalonians‬ ‭5:14-19‬ ‭CSB‬‬
