Forcing God's Hand

Many times we try to force a decision from God. Each time we are faced with frustration. The churches have indoctrinated us to believe God is just standing by to give us our every wish. This is far from reality. God does want what is best for us, and He does look ahead. Sometimes what is best for us is not what we want to hear. Doors are closed or doors are opened. Just because we want something does not mean it is in our best interest. So when we see a door closed we immediately assume God doesn't care or we must have some great sin that prevented our request from being granted. This comes from pulpits of every demoniation. While in reality God may have seen a pot hole that was going to cause far worse distress than the closed door. Just remember this--- In all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called accordin to His purpose. --Romans 8:28
