ORDER~
Everything in its place.
DISORDER~
You can't find anything,
ORDER~
Your PLAN.
DISORDER~
Not your PLAN.
ORDER REORDER~
GOD'S PLAN.
For GOD KNOWS HIS PLAN,
and that is to take
ALL DISORDER
and
REORDER it
and
use it for
THE GOOD
of those who LOVE HIM.
Does that sugar coat the DISORDER
that may be happening in your life?
Oh no.
For the DISORDER
becomes the open door
of SURRENDERING
all the messy pieces.
But what makes the mess messier?
Oh when I try to force pieces to fit where they are not supposed to fit.
When I try to rush GOD.
When I try to figure out what GOD is doing.
When I try to make sense of the senseless.
When I get impatient looking at all the messy pieces
and want the puzzle complete.
And when I get involved,
I add to the DISORDER.
I believe GOD just looks at me
and gracefully laughs as
HE tenderly
invites HIMSELF into the DISORDER
by
asking me to
SURRENDER all the pieces to HIM.
Why?
Because GOD is a GOD of ORDER.
And since I don't like putting together puzzles,
which I am not good at,
why not hand over ALL the pieces
to the ONE
REORDERS ALL THE DISORDER.
The sweet spot of SURRENDER
that brings ORDER into the DISORDER.
Ready. Get Set. Go.
LIVE in ORDER despite the DISORDER
and
"TRUST in the LORD with all your HEART, __________*(say your name)
and
Do not lean on your own understanding, __________. In all your ways, __________, acknowledge HIM, and HE will make straight your paths"
(Proverbs 35-6)
LIVE in ORDER despite the DISORDER
and
"Rejoice in hope, _________,
be patient in tribulation, _________,
be constant in prayer, _________, "
(Roman 12:12).
LIVE in ORDER despite the DISORDER~
But one thing I, _________, do:
Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead,
I, _________, press on toward the goal to win the prize for which
GOD has called me heavenward in CHRIST JESUS"
(Philippians 3:13-14).
Now stand back.
Look at ALL the puzzle pieces of your life
that just don't make sense,
that don't fit together like you want them to fit,
that look like DISORDER
and
SURRENDER~
"BE SILL and KNOW,
____________,
that I am
GOD"
(Psalm 46:10).
Why?
Because
GOD KNOWS!
Get Ready.
Get Set.
And
GO~
"ORDER, DISORDER, REORDER"
