WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

You think you are in control, think again. You are not in control!

Did you choose the day you were born? Did you choose the day you will die? Did you choose where to meet your spouse?

You may plan everything; from high school to college, and even your marriage. Plans are very ok. But can you choose when to meet your spouse? You can only pray that you meet her before the wedding day according to your timetable and that will be available on that day, either by choice or by chance. Things happen, you know. Accidents, sickness, death. Things happen and things can go wrong. A wonderful plan may go wrong; because you are not in control.

You are not in control because you are not in control of time. If you know it, you use it, but you don’t decide it.

There are only a select few among the human populace that will be match for you. You cannot meet all of them. Some are leaving so far away in another part of the planet that nothing would bring them your way. But all things being equal, one must cross your way. And you will love him. You may not accept him, you may not show him you love him, but he must stir something inside you. You may not know it is love, but it must be there, no matter how faint, all things being equal.

Another may come after, another may not. Some have only a chance, some have more. But even if you have twenty, you cannot decide WHEN they will come your way. They will come when they will come. You are not in control.

Many girls continue waiting for rich handsome men. A guy with all the abilities to help her fulfill her destiny may come her way, but she will be busy looking for money and big cars. While riches are okay, a girl who knows her worth should not be seeking for already-made. You may end up marrying the money and cars while another person or thing marries your husband.

Some keep waiting for men from their churches and their time passes, and they would think they had all the time in the world.

Men want to achieve before they marry. In some parts of the world, getting a job is not enough, they want to build houses, buy lands, and have exotic cars. They meet women, most time use and dump them, waiting for the time on their schedule. They forget that they are not in control.

When things do not happen the way we want them when we want them, we say God’s time is the best. But do we mean it. Your match can come before you think you are ready as easily as it can come after the time on your schedule. God’s time does not only come later, it sometimes comes sooner. Aslan is not a tame lion. You cannot even choose the person you want to love you; that is how powerless you are.

But like Michael Learns to Rock sang:

If we keep the truth between us

Love will never lie

So you need to be sensitive. You need to be wise. You need to know that things are way beyond your control. You know not the time nor the hour, like Jesus said. And you cannot decide. The train has its time, you can only decide to board or not to board. But you can only blame yourself if the next ones are cargo trains. They may take you but in such a way that you may wish you never left in the first place.

Bryan Adams said; when you find someone you love, let your feelings show. Who knows, it may happen to you only once in a lifetime. You may have another opportunity, but you can never be too sure.
