Listening To Reg Grant this morning during the Spiritual Life Conference at Dallas Theological Seminary on a podcast... and was truly encouraged. It is such a blessing to know and see how sovereign our God is. The lesson was from the book of Ruth. Reg had pointed out how amazing God truly is through the story of Naomi, Ruth and Boaz. Nothing occurs without God knowing it through and through. God intended Ruth to wander over to Boaz' fields. God intended Boaz to visit the fields that exact day. God intended Boaz to have such a kind heart towards her. God intended all of these things to happen. It wasn't a coincidence. God doesn't have coincidences. He has intention. God has intended you to be where you are. God has intended you to be surrounded by those around you to grow in your faith... whether people who believe the same as you or differently. God intended to have you where you are at. So the question is are you doubting God today? Are you making a head choice and not a heart choice to know and understand the sovereignty of God? I am sure that it means something to mentally understand but do you believe with your whole heart the God will provide, that God will protect you, that God's will is the best for your life? A mental choice isn't enough... He wants us to follow Him with our hearts. Are you believing it with your whole heart?!? I will be examining my heart for this... I will be praying that I have that belief. But most importantly that my life and actions resemble that of believing with my whole heart that God is Sovereign over my life and that I can trust in Him through everything.
