Assistance

 May flickered passed like a pebble across a pond.

Graduation from college on May 18 left me closing one chapter and opening another. It feels good to be finished with the schooling aspect of these past years though I know the learning process is far from over.

Speaking of learning, isn't it amazing how you know something in the back of your mind but it hits like a brand new fresh revelation sometimes?

Realization: God does not need your help.

Sure, He gave you an opinion but not to interject against His. He gave you the ability to work and serve Him but not to earn or merit His favor. You can plan out your next step in life and the next few steps to follow but He can see the timeline of life start to finish. His ways are far higher, far better, and far more capable of seeing things through.

The Almighty does not need assistance with being the Almighty.

More and more He has been teaching me to let go of me and let Him do what He does best. He has opened doors and put together things that I could not have orchestrated myself. He has flooded my life with blessings and good and none of it was based on me but all on Him and that's exactly as it should be.

"Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of His understanding."
Isaiah 40:28



                                               




"God’s lead­er­ship is the one sig­nif­i­cant fact in hu­man ex­per­i­ence, that it makes no dif­fer­ence how we are led, or whi­ther we are led, so long as we are sure God is lead­ing us. " - Joseph Gilmore

  2. Great Blog! Thanks for this post. God is always trying to teach something to us, and we don't take the time to listen. It's amazing how we get carried away with ourselves so often. Thanks again, keep up the good work, God Bless! <><
