God Is Acting

This morning I looked at my I-pad and the news clip said:  “They have been missing for months.”  The news clip was referring to the two young people, from Idaho, who were all of the sudden no where to be found; and yet their parents went to Hawaii.  

I put my head back on my chair thinking:  God I have no way to pray about people who can kill children. 

I have no way to pray about what is happening to people’s minds today. 

I have no way to pray for what is happening in our world. Or our national and world leaders.

I stoped for a moment and then my prayer went in a different direction: But what I am sure of is that you are in the midst of it all creating and acting in ways I have not clue about.

So my prayer is simply this, Thy Will Be Done.

Thy will be done is the one prayer I can hold on to.  It is the only prayer that make complete sense to me.

If I didn’t believe that God was actively at work I would lose all hope for our world.

But I do trust, with all of my being, that something good and constructive will come out of this time in our history.

What occurred to me as I wrote the above is: our world population has a huge amount of learning to do.  We need to stop trying to control situations that are meant for only God’s wisdom.  

What exactly those ‘situations’ are, is not in the realm of my imagination.  But something in me feels that we have over stepped our bounds.

Maybe we have interfered in areas of creation that were meant to be left to God’s wisdom. 

That is what is going on in my mind this beautiful sunny morning.
