Have you ever said that to somebody? I have. Ironically, it usually has to do with something I don't know anything about. The teacher makes a suggestion, having done this thing before, and even when I trust the person, their advice seems counter-intuitive. Somehow, even though I don't know what I'm doing, I question whether the person teaching me the lesson knows what is going on! For example, I have learned virtually everything I know about fishing and hunting from somebody else. I really don't have time to learn everything the hard way so I ask people questions and eventually they invite me to a "lesson." Tom and his friends have been teaching me how to hunt water-fowl. I haven't said it as often as I have thought it but the question has passed through my mind many a time, "Are you sure about this?" It happened this past Fall on a goose hunt and I have never seen so many geese so close and had such a "blast," (pun intended). Sadly, I also have this "questioning problem" with Jesus sometimes. I have trusted my soul to Him forever but I read some of His instructions for how to do life and I want to say, "Are You sure about this?" His advice seems counter intuitive...and it is if we are comparing His teachings with many of the people giving advice today. Do we really believe Jesus knows what life is about and how to live? Will we do what He says, even when we wonder? We're the ones who don't know what we are doing! We need help! The King of Glory can be trusted and we need to do the right thing and let Him rescue us. God willing, February 8 we'll be studying a story about taxes, obedience, fishing and miraculous provision. God does know what He is doing. Will we believe Him enough to obey Him?
