🔸️ Must see God in our circumstances! 🔸️
As Paul said of Alexander the metal worker (Copper Smith), our Lord will reward our enemies according to their deeds! (2 Tim. 4:14). Therefore, it is safe for us to entrust such vengeful things to the Lord (Romans 12:19).
Yes, surrendering anything to God is the highest standard life. Because, He knows exactly what He is doing! "Everything" is subject to His authority! As a good sculptor, He is neatly carving the rock to shape Jesus in us. Since "certain parts" of the rock are hard, he has to use such false accusations and objections to carve them. Thus if we are submissive to His carving.... in the end, we can get the shape as Christ-like human beings and can receive spiritual authority!!
As Jesus clearly saw His Father's hand in every situation He faced, it was possible for Him to call Judas, who betrayed Him, as, "Friend!" Thus, if we too can see God's omnipotent rule in all our situations, it will be easier for us to humble ourselves in those situations!! Therefore, it will be very easy for God to lift us up at the right time!!
Yes, only God knows the time to “remove” the pressure that falls on our shoulders and the right time to “give” His power over the same shoulders. Thus no one who waits for the Lord is ever disappointed or ashamed! (Isaiah 49:23).
Prayer:
Our Heavenly Father! Give us the grace not to reflect ourselves in the circumstances of our life; give us the grace to believe your reigning and to keep quiet for your will be done in our life; In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
