Dave, ..... "ALL is of God." Beautiful!

This mundane or what we call "mundane" every day life is actually a type and shadow of a supernatural life that is ever present... every day, 24/7, constantly. The fact that I am concious and able to witness events... all Him.

Matt 25:40 And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.

Prov 16:4 The LORD hath made all for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.

He is working ALL things after the council of His own will. He's directing, leading, working the salvation of all!! And it's going on constantly.

It's easy to get complacent in our perception of "daily living". However, this whole universe is a testament of His power, the birth of a baby, the death of a loved one, using the bathroom, picking up a spoon.... It's all Christ!

Psalm 107:8 Oh, that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness, And for His wonderful works to the children of men!

He's doing it all by the power of His spirit/Word.  These thoughts I think right now are not even my own!!!!  He put them there, He fashioned these fingers to type this message... It all points to Him. Every molecule, atom, electron, quark, string. ALL POWER AND ENERGY comes from the source of ALL. The father through the son :)

It's wonderful :)

loretta:
The sense I get reading everybody's post is that although we are mere puppets in this world that is our stage, there is ultimate freedom for those who are IN Christ.

I used to fear persecution. I still do!  In Christendom, much is made of martyrs who stand firm for their faith, and that is good.  But what about those who are fearful, who recant under threat of torture or death - isn't that of God too, to bring about His ultimate purpose.

So whether I stand or fall, live or die, under ordinary or extraordinary circumstances, it is ALL of God.

If that is not real freedom, then what is?

John 8:36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

Thanks everybody.
