You maybe about to do an exam. You could Pray to God and ask him to help you pass. So what next? forget revision? go out to enjoy yourself? or, do you set aside to study time and work towards your best?
You may have a job interview, so do you Pray and leave the rest to God? or do you look up the job description and find out a bit about it? do you go in jeans and t-shirt? or do you go in suit?
You want something really bad but cant afford it? do you Pray and hope God will send a nice fat cheque? or do you save up or do extra hours at work?
It so easy to think that leaving things in gods hands if enough (and sometimes it could be) but how about if we work with God?
Don't get it? OK... Lets say you want to go on a trip but you have no idea how to get there. You could Pray and leave it to God to get you there. Good idea? well you may as well just close you eyes and put you foot to the floor and hope. Mad right?
So I guess the better way to go is to plan ahead, look at a map, see which is the best way and plan any stops. Things that God gives us to make it better, easier and will get us to our goal.
God doesn't want to take over our lives, he wants to work in our lives. Remember When we seek him wholeheartedly. Its not always about asking him to do something, its sometimes about asking him to help, The skill then is to see his help.
