The Power XIV

Sometimes in the face of “apparently” overwhelming evil our only first step is to agree with Joseph and say, “God did this”.  The explanation may or may not come later.

By the same token, if you have the ability to change the apparent evil – do something - that is Him in action, moving you into action.  When you can affect the change – do it – as Him doing it.  Never stand by silently, inactively, when others need you.  That is why you are there, precisely at that moment.

We have all faced a situation, or two, or a hundred, when it appears as though evil has won. It is that point where reality through faith must take over.  There are moments when we look in the mirror, speaking to Him, and the only thing we can say is, “I don’t know what You’re up to – I don’t like it – I don’t understand – but I accept this from You at the moment”.

We can, and often must, default to our basics.  There is only one God and He is the only Power in the universe.  Some call this the “seeing through” approach and I like that phrase. Can we look apparent evil in the eye and see through to Him – even if we don’t know why? 

Yes we can.  Yes we will.
