hands off

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.

as fish is caught in a cruel net,

or as birds are taken in a snare,

so men are trapped by evil times that fall unexpectedly upon them.

we may do everything that we needed to do
and be great at it, too.
we may have the best of what life has to offer
making our existence better.
but still, the Sovereignty of the Lord covers over every -little- thing.
God has the final say on what will unfold and happen in our lives.
the important thing is ---
trust God,
let go of the things you have no control of,
and Trust God even more.


Ecclesiastes 9 .
