Some people think they are in charge. I mean, they really think that they control things. While we do control certain things and make certain decisions, which control certain things, we don't actually control things. These folks seem to think that if it weren't for them, GOD would never get anything done.
I will tell you that it is a good thing that GOD doesn't leave me in charge. If He did, there would be a few less people in this world. There would definitely be less drama in this world. I would venture to say that there would be a lot less channels on television. Does anyone actually watch C-Span? Much less C-Span 2...
Today's word is a saying I came across a while back that says, "Remember, GOD has not gone of vacation and left you in charge."
We so often feel as though we have to do everything. We have to figure everything out and make everything happen. Without us, nothing would ever be accomplished.
Don't get me wrong. We have to do our part. It is imperative that we accomplish our part. It is of the utmost importance for us to make plans and set goals and do everything in our power to accomplish those things that are ours to accomplish. However, and this will come as a shock to some people, you are not in charge. If you really believe you are, tell the river to reverse flow. Or, tell the rain to cease falling and rise. We like to think we are in charge but we are not.
Look, all I am trying to say is, GOD needs us to be what He designed us to be - faithful servants. He is the Shepherd; we are the sheep. He is in charge; we follow Him.
Now that we have that cleared up, let's get back to work! There will be time for vacation later...
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
