Giving it ALL to God
Sometimes in life when things go wrong, there is no one to blame. Sometimes there is no rhyme, no reason to why they happen, they just happen and sometimes it’s unfair. Life is just unfair.
But in the midst of that, here is what I want you to remember and see woven through your life story – Though there may be an unfairness in life, God is never without a plan for your life.
It doesn’t matter what the unfairness is. It doesn’t matter what happens, God says, “I have a plan for YOU.”
Mother Teresa said many years ago, while working in the slums, and picking up children and loving them and caring for them: “I know that God won’t give me anything I can’t handle. I just wish He wouldn’t trust me with so much.”
I doubt there is someone out there today that hasn’t at some point in life felt like there has been an unfairness in life, that life is not fair. All of us come to that conclusion at some point.
God for sure constantly uses people, places, and things for the purpose of showing us the weaknesses of our lives and revealing the sins of our own lives.
He says, “Look, I want to show you who you are because I want to plunge you into My grace that you will receive My provision for your life. I am going to wean you away from depending so much on yourself, that you forget I am the God of grace and I have provision to fill your life.”
The unfairness of life sometimes shatters our hearts and sometimes they shatter our lives. However, God does miraculous things when our hearts are shattered and broken, provided that we will give Him all the pieces, not just a few.
God says – “My son, My daughter, give me your whole heart. Don’t hold anything back from me. Give it all to me.”
Sometimes we reserve little things and we say, “I can fix that. I can take care of that.”
God said, “No! Surrender that up to me. Give it all over to me and let me fix the wound, the pain of your life, let me fix the unfairness.”
Because once again, God says, “I have a plan for you.”
The only way for God to work His will and way in your life is for you to stay in touch with God. You can’t look at life, you can’t look at circumstance and you can’t look at the unfairness.
You must rise above the challenges of life and embrace the teachings of God’s Word.
He wants you to know that in spite of the unfairness of your life, He still has a plan for you. He plans to minister His provision.
Don’t get bitter. Don’t get angry. Don’t get down in the dumps. Don’t blame God. Don’t find fault with God. Don’t talk about being born on the wrong side of the tracks. Hang around until God writes the final chapter. Because in that final chapter, God is going to bless you.
