God Creates new Opportunities for Others
A couple of events this week made me realize that God creates new opportunities for others as He creates opportunities for me.
The often spoken theology most of us have heard is that God has to bring someone down to raise us up.
But the events of the week re-affirmed my conviction that God can raise me up by creating new opportunities for others
When God Uses Errors for Good
Something happened at our home this week that reminded me of how God steps in to address problems you never knew you had.
To understand it best, I’d like to share a story that happened during my undergraduate
I had gone to the hospital feeling unwell (exactly, that’s the only reason we go there)
The doctor had recommended a widal test and sensitivity of the test.
I went to the laboratory and the guy asked for samples I didn’t expect to give. I gave it and went my merry way.
Letting People Answer Their Questions
It has taken me years to learn this and even more years still trying to practice it
It’s something I picked up from watching Jesus answer people’s questions.
Instead of giving answers, He would give them a fresh perspective which they could use to answer their own questions.
I got to practice a bit of that this week.
A Peddler of a Strange Gospel
I get feedback from people of some of the stuff I write and how it doesn’t seem to line up with conventional or general ideas of what Christianity is.
I am always first to be critical about everything I write. My reason is simple. I carry a heavy punishment for teaching anything that does not line up with the complete gospel.
This is one of the reasons why I try to read the whole Bible every year. It is meant to ensure that everything I write aligns with the whole Bible.
While on the phone with someone, we got into talking about scriptures. At a point, I said that God sometimes takes believers home at a young age, irrespective of how they died.
He asked if I could change it to “God allows it”.
