God reigns

I had a lot of work to do the other day,and did not have any time to waste.Doing a DIY (do it yourself) was used by God to teach me that He truly reigns in all our situation.
The bedroom cabinet that was to be fixed was not suppose to last the time it did. But as we were two people fixing it,we found out that interpreting the instruction manual was not so understandable as we thought it should be.The instuction was to be followed step by step, and the next level was not to be fixed unless the previous was corret.But somewhere along the fixing , we could not get it right because we had bypass maybe, a little screw, and we spent more time on that level than was necessary. Do you know what?We became very tired and worn out, just because we did not want to start all over to get it right. Eventually we came to the end of the wardrobe, and it sat down there, very beautiful.
At the end of the day,(like i would normally reflect) my mind went to the time we could not make any headway, and then we taught we should pack it up for another day.Is it not truly the way we want to abandon a lot of life issues that look as if they cannot be achieved? I also saw the way that our lack of patience and looking inward allow us to waiste precious time in this world trying to find our bearing. Let us go back to the owner's manual,the Bible and study it, to find out how He wants us not to go through the pain of life for too long.I also learnt that, there are a lot of little things that we over look in the affairs of life,that, will cause us not to reach our greatest potential.Time will be saved,most pain would be avoided,more would be achieve when we spend time enough to understand what God wants our lives to be like if time is spent in His manual. God reigns in that situation you are going through right now, all you need to do is to check out THE OWNER'S MANUAL.

Beautiful post..God uses the 'mundane' things in our lives to teach us 'spiritual' truths.
