Out Of Chaos

Everything I observe makes me believe this is true: order is not natural.
When I consider my office I’m astounded at how quickly it descends into chaos and how long it takes me to restore order. Order requires intervention; it does not happen naturally. I shouldn’t be surprise. God’s role in bringing order out of chaos is a prominent biblical theme. With effort, we can bring order to our living spaces, but none of us can bring order out of the emotional and spiritual chaos of our lives. Only God can do that. He restores order to chaotic situations when we live as God intended – speaking no evil, being peaceable and gentle and showing humility to all.

Father, our world and our lives do have much chaos
And confusion. We need You to restore our souls.
Help us to live as You want us to live –
Loving others.

When we put our problems in God’s hands, He put His peace in our hearts.
