This is a very simple post…
A very simple thought…
And yet so very profound…
Trusting God…
It is impossible to feel depressed or discouraged or disheartened or sorry for yourself when you are trusting God…
The simple belief that everything that happens to you has been allowed to happen by a loving God who will always cause everything which He allows to happen to you to work together for your good is what keeps you from bitterness, caustic-ness, disillusionment, despair and giving up on the dreams which He has so repeatedly given you…
Either God is good or He is not…
Once this decision is made for you, i.e. which of the above you believe, everything gets a whole lot simpler…
I’ve seen people who are sorry for themselves and frankly it gets to a point where I can no longer have anything to do with them…
Why is this?
Because I don’t share their world view…
And clearly they don’t share mine…
Our world views just don’t mix…
And two people who have different world views can’t walk together…
Can’t be united…
Can’t have fellowship with one another and can’t make any progress together…
Choose your side…
Either (a) God is right and everything He does – even when you can’t understand it – is loving and kind and for your ultimate good or (b) He isn’t and you should take control of your own life and try to ensure that everything happens for you the way you believe it should because after all in this world you are the only person who cares about you…
