“In Control” - Delusion and Reality

Sometimes we humans really delude ourselves. Some imagine they are in control of their lives. And what can be said about Christians who imagine that if they say just the right things, do the right things, and have just the right faith, God MUST do what they ask/want?

Hello! It's a huge universe! There are some 7 billion sinners living and doing things in this world. Also, there are weather, earthquakes, volcanoes, and zombies, all doing their thing


No creature can trap their Creator into a corner. OK? Christians can act faithfully, intelligently, and diligently, but cannot control what other sinners may do or do to them. Nor control what God brings into or allows in their lives. That's part of what it means to have faith in and trust God. Living with unknowns and trusting God for whatever came and will come. In God's hand even pain is a tool to shape us into better than we could ever imagine ourselves to be.
