GOD IS IN CONTROL


God gave us his word that if we will put our trust in him, and never let our heart be troubled; He will pay us back for all the unfair things that have happened to us. Maybe you have been lied against, and that kept you from getting your promotion. You may have been cheated in a business deal and you lost a lot of money. Or maybe a good friend took advantage of you.

Read this story

A man who is a mechanic at a large diesel-truck shop narrated how he received an improper treatment for donkey years in his working place. He was reduced to a subject of mockery, and all manner of treatment was melted on him because he refuses to go with them to a party. Among all the staff, he enroll as the overall best, and he record the highest among all staff which is attributed to his hard working. But for      seven years, he has no promotion, no bonus and no increase in his salary.

Under such condition, He was expected to get mad at the world. He could have quite the job to search for job elsewhere. He could develop a harden hart and become stubborn. But in the contrary, He maintained the hard working spirit in him, believing that one day, God will answer his prayers. He is not working to make man happy but to please God.

A day come; a faithful day, when the owner of the company called him. The owner was not among on the office day-to-day activities, so the mechanic does not know him. But the owner told Him that he wants to go on retirement and was looking for a capable hand to take over the business. And that is what I called you to do. The owner said to the mechanic, He said quickly, sir, I would have loved to own it but I don't have money to buy it. The owner replied I have money; I need someone I can trust to keep my dream of using this company to serve humanity even when I am not on earth. I want to give it to you.


This is little to compare what God will do for you if you will let him in to pilot all your affairs. The point is, you must let God in. Allow him to handle it his own way, remember what the scripture says, "Never avenge for yourselves, but leave the way open for God's wrath. Whenever you try to pay back, you are stopping God from performing in your life. You can as well do it your way or you do it God's way. If your choice is the way of God, then you should forget using a negative word like: I am going to show them what stuff I am made of. That will stop God from handling your case his way. The only way out of trusting God to do something is by realizing that he is in control.
