I have been thinking and wondered if you were too....

Many have said, "Well, I'd like to be more involved in church, but I am too busy with my life." We cannot serve God if we do not have time to serve Him. The enemy of opportunity is preoccupation, there are some of us who are too busy to notice any opportunities that God is giving us. Opportunities are providential circumstances which leads us to serve others when God wants us to serve that all spiritual gifts are important. To allow spiritual gifts to go to waste makes God's opportunities to go to waste. I believe that a disciple will continue to rejoice even during trying times. God wants us to be busy rejoicing in the gracious prospect of all opportunities of God's will. The Scriptures have demonstrated similar stories from great FAITHS. The"normal" life of a disciple can never become a life of sadness and pessimism because we are to rely on the Holy Spirit who keeps us from giving up with His Sufficient Grace. At the same time, we should understand that God, just because He is almighty, needs no support from us and He is still able to do what He wills to do. Often I noticed that the providential of God leads us to what we call "coincidences" in their lives which perhaps God will make sure that His wills will be done at His right time and place. There are two worlds, set over against each other, dominated by two wills, the will of man and the will of God, respectively. Whose will have more power? Of course, God. He directs our lives no matter what we do. Thomas Aquinas wrote, "The function of God's angels is to execute the plan of divine providence, even in earthly things." John Calvin wrote that "angels are the dispensers and administrators of the divine beneficence toward us." What do you think? Can many of us can get more involved and serve in our local church?
