Why Can’t God Make Up His Mind?
Thursday, August 28th, 2008I sat in on a conversation between two men a while back .
One fellow was absolutely convinced that he was following God’s will. God had made it clear to him through his own convictions that what he was doing was God’s plan. To top it off, everywhere he turned he saw ‘green lights.’ People agreed with him, ideas fell into place. Yea!
However, on the other side of the table sat another man who had equally strong convictions that what he was doing was also God’s will. He’d prayed hard and long about it and also found reassurance from other Godly men and women.
Problem - the two men did not only not see eye to eye, their paths were divergent and affected one another. If each man were to look objectively at the other man’s proposal both would have to admit to a flashing red light, or at least a yellow caution light.
What’s up with that? Why can’t God make up His mind?
I talked with another man today who was convinced that God wanted him to start a project some two years ago. Today, the project just isn’t flying. He tried to convince me that God might have different plans other than the original ones.
What’s up with that? Why can’t God make up His mind?
I want to know…why can’t God make up His mind? Or is it people that can’t make up theirs?
