Come+Trust=Changed Life

        If there was a equation to explain God's Sovereignty, this one would be it! I also have some verses to prove it too and to really look at plus some examples in my life from this past week. We (my small community group) was studying God's Sovereignty this past Sunday and I saw it non-stop this past week. Funny how God does things like that sometimes. He is testing you to see what you learned.
        Here are some verses about God's Sovereignty:
              -"Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh, is anything to difficult for me?"-Jeremiah 32:27
              -"And being aroused, He rebuked the wind and said to the sea, "Hush, be still." And the wind died down and it became perfectly calm."-Mark 4:39
              -"While He was still speaking, they came from the house of the synagogue official, saying, "Your daughter has died; why bother the teacher anymore?" But Jesus, overhearing what was being spoken, said to the synagogue official, "Do not be afraid any longer, only believe." And taking the child's hand, He said to her, "Little girl, I say to you arise."-Mark 5:35, 36, 41
       In those verses God is telling us that He can change lives for the better through the hardest of things if there is a need for that. We just have to go to Him, Seek Him, and Ask Him and Trust (believe) that He will do it for our good whether we think it is or not. His good can be and is different from our good a lot of times. Sometimes God uses the bad to lead us to Him and his ways espically when we won't pay attention to His Soft, still voice.
       God changed a lot of lives just by these verses. He changed the man's lives that were in the boat because even the sea and wind obey Him. He changed the little girls's life by letting her have life again and changed that father's life and the lives around Him because they saw that miracle happen. I would like to think that the people did not go home living the same lives has they did before Jesus did those miracles. That was God's Sovereignty at work.
        Now think about how God's Sovereignty has worked in your life. Has He brought you back from the "dead"? Has He changed your life in ways you can explain? It brings the dead to life again! He has power over our lives! How awesome is it to think about that! If we just give our lives to Him, He will show us the way to go. If we just go to Him and trust Him with everything then He will change our lives for the better. It reminds me that God is in control. He always was and He will always be. God has control over everything-Creation, people, evil spirits, and so on.
        To tie it into Easter, Jesus went to God (His Father) in the Garden before going to the cross. Jesus prayed to God, "Please take this cup from me but if it is Your Will let it be done." That was the deepest, saddest moment for Jesus and even though He had power over death He died on that cross for us because He Loved us that much. Sometimes as people, we don't see God's Sovereignty until the hardest of times when really we should go to Him and trust Him everyday to do something to change our lives for Him.
