ANOTHER CHANCE
Ecclesiastes 9:11 NIV
[11] I have seen something else under the sun: The race is not to the swift or the battle to the strong, nor does food come to the wise or wealth to the brilliant or favor to the learned; but time and chance happen to them all.
Every moment we have is by chance. Chance is not just a possibility of something happening at random but a predetermined moment by God to allow something to happen. Every chance is an opportunity God gives us to experience His goodness.
Life is not about how much we desire or fight for, but God's willingness to favour us. You can be smart, strong, wise, brilliant or learned, but God chooses whom to favour
Romans 9:14-16 KJV
[14] What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid. [15] For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. [16] So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.
This demonstrates the ruling of God in the affairs of men. It therefore encourages us to seek His will concerning our lives and depend on Him as the final determiner of our fate.
Every moment we have is a chance and an opportunity from God to make the most out of our lives, looking up to Him for favour and grace.
May the month of November be another opportunity given to you by God to turn your situation around.
Arise and make good use of the opportunity God has given you today.
Happy New Month!
