A Word in Season, Volume 7 QUOTES

1 " My point is this: most of us are bad passengers who treat the Lord as though He were a bad driver. The Bible makes clear that God is in the driver’s seat. This is what predestination is all about (Rom. 8:28–39). There is no question about God’s perfection nor about His ability. We are the question mark. Do we act as though some fool, or some careless person, is in the driver’s seat of the universe? Are we bad passengers who are trying to second-guess God, put on the brakes for Him, and to correct His every step? Are our prayers really insults? Do we pray as though God has to be corrected, or nagged into doing the right thing? Or do we pray with confidence to the perfect Lord, knowing that He delights in our trust and welcomes our trusting prayer? "
