Who is in charge of everything? I can tell you, show you and remind you that 'It is a God thing' and no one else's. We fool ourselves when we think we've accomplished anything on our own. Sometimes I think about needing to talk with someone and go down my list of people possibilities. Then one by one they don't get selected for whatever reason by me and then when I'm out of choices, I soon realize my choice is The One who knows all and can solve all my woes.
We often get so overwhelmed by our problems that we forget Who is greater than any of our biggest or smallest of problems. Sometimes we anticipate trouble before it even has a chance to occur. Our focus should not be on what could go wrong but instead think of what could go right.
Thursday is the day to celebrate our independence but may we never lose our total dependence on God in our lives because He is in charge. Have a 'Happy 4th of July'.
