I counsel thee to keep the king's commandment, and that in
regard of the oath of God. Be not hasty to go out of his sight: stand not in an
evil thing; for he doeth whatsoever pleaseth him. Where the word of a king is,
there is power: and who may say unto him, What doest thou? Ecclesiastes 8:2-4
A sovereign God may do as HE pleases, when HE pleases, how
HE pleases, where HE pleases, to whom HE pleases. HE does not owe us an
explanation. We cannot vote HIM in nor vote HIM out. We cannot impeach HIM. We
cannot force HIM to do our will. HE is not intimidated by us. HE does not
tremble at our collective measly might. HE is not confounded by our combined meager
knowledge and limited understanding.
It is best for us to simply trust HIM. Submit fully to HIS
will as we pray, “THY will be done, as in heaven, so in earth.” And even as HE
allows things we understand not, let us not get beside ourselves and try to act
as God, and impose our woeful will but just purely let HIM be God knowing HE’s
still in control and all things are working together for our good to them that
love HIM. And if HE’s still in control let us show that we know this by seeking
and obeying HIS will for the lives HE has given us, knowing we have a day
coming where we shall give an account to HIM of our actions, beliefs, and
communication.
