Do your best, God will do the rest!

For centuries, man has tried various ways and countless effort to reach God and to seek life’s answer. However, no matter what we did or tried, we are doomed to failure. You many come across people who say that all religion is the same because they teach people to do good. However, does doing good promise salvation? Do we have the wisdom and strength to determine where we go after we die?

In God’s eye, we are all sinners. We carried sinful blood passed down by our ancestor Adam & Eve. No matter what we do, our contaminated body will not allow us to enter God’s kingdom.

God knows our limitation, but still He loves us. As promised in John 3:16, instead of man reaching to God, God Himself came down to earth as Jesus, so that whoever believes in Him may seek Him and have eternal life. Through Jesus’ blood, we are cleansed from sin. We don’t have to do anything; we just need to believe in Him.

In everyday life, we might wonder what God’s will is for us. A lot of us mis-interpreted that we will not do anything until God speaks to us. This is not true.

In God’s kingdom, we live by faith. For everything we do in life, we need to be sensitive to God. No matter where we are, in workplace or at home, we strive to do our best in our designated role. We need to spend quality time in prayer, to meditate on His word, and to improve our relationship with God accordingly. Things might not be in favor to us sometimes, but we can take this as an opportunity from God to mould us into a better person, like what God did to Joseph during his slavery times. He did his best, but God did the rest for him. Without God’s wisdom and promise, no matter how well Joseph performs in his daily work, do you think he has the strength to deliver his people?

We did our best to perform well in our daily job. However, in certain situation we could be helpless. We might face challenging situation where crucial decisions has to be made which will probably lose our position, and we don’t know what the next step is. We are exhausted, tired, and lost. But rests assure, as long as we give our best to what we did for God, we believe God has his plan to do the rest for us.

Have faith in our Almighty God. Do your best, God will do the rest!
