Who is keeping you?

In my view, the Lord wants us to be sufficient in every area of our lives, but in reality it really is him doing the work, in and through us. The Bible says that God uses us for His “good pleasure” Philippians 2:13. In fact, there are many who have not given the Lord God of heaven, the creator, the respect or honor, or credence due to His name.

In my opinion, it is easier to attribute success to the Lord, and also ask for help for failures, because in the event that we do fail(which we will) there would be some light at the end of the tunnel for us. Is not the Father in Heaven good to us? It just goes to show that in reality, even the fool, who says that there is no God is just a pawn in the hands or mind of God Psalm 14:1.

Even the best of them who have raw natural talent should attribute their all to the faithful creator, because he made us and not we ourselves Psalm 100:3. Who is keeping you? Who wakes you up in the morning to venture off to that good paying job. Who gave you the minivan to take those children to soccer, basketball, and or track practice?

There is a plethora of scenarios that can be used to prove the existence of God, and his nature, but this post is meant to ask you who is keeping you. No matter how successful one is, there is a God who has ordained that person to prosper. It’s like the old saying, “the more you thank God for the more he does for you.” This is true, and so, who is keeping you?
