Someone reckons to believe in God is a sign of man's weakness. Many of us turn to God in times of distress . We want to lean on an imaginary great force who can prop us up. In a way , it is true. Man is weak. When faced with calamity, the strong ones seek their own way of handling it. The so-called lesser mortals pray to a higher being. But, man is not infallible. There are times when the strong feel weak & cannot see a solution. What do they do ? Suicide or kill ? So , are the strong still strong & the weak weak ?
"You do not seek God. God seeks you." How true. You want to believe & yet not practice the religion you embrace. Only by the grace of the Omnipotent, can we really partake in His ways. A friend of mine commented , " Then , the problem does not lie with man . it lies with God. " Aha. In an analogy. When your neighbour was looking at you, trying to make eye contact & start a conversation & you went straight from your car into your house, what happens. Your neighbour will not want to disturb you since you are so busy.
Man needs quiet time . Time to let go of all earthly embraces. Time to listen to the voice of the Almighty. Time for Him to send us His message . He does not need a calamity to enter our lives. If only we let Him....talk to us & we truly listen a few minutes a day.
