Problems to Solve, Questions to Ponder - Part 2

Every generation faces milestones that change the course of human history. God in his wisdom uses people to influence future generations. Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity is an example. I can’t even begin to comprehend what it means. God will use, however, improbable people to carry out his plan and purpose for his creation.

God’s business is change, and he will use whomever he chooses to activate that change. Listen to a difficult verse to understand from Matthew 22:14. “Many are called or invited, but few are chosen.” Perhaps an attitude of consent, compliance and willingness to change is key to being chosen by God.

God’s goal is that we be redeemed and transformed from a self-centered lifestyle into compliance with his purpose and plan. This may be a lifetime endeavor, for change is difficult. God opens our eyes and hearts to understand and accept what he has in store for us. It is by his power and grace we can conform to his great plan.
