======Trust the Lord of Lords ...======
Tuesday, Jan 28, 2014. Recently I have been reminded of the unbelievable power
of God to do wonders and to arrange things. When you hear stories, how people
came to faith, their path can be fascinating and amazing.

**God is Lord of Lords ...**
Humans tend to look towards human authority and towards human power. Some of us
have quite some power - either by their wealth or by their skills or by their
institutional role. Some are gifted to lead a huge crowd, they know how to do
it and how to act to make things happen.
But often, when we ignore the deeper structure of this world, we tend to attribute
power to things which do not have the power they seem to have. On a special layer,
yes, on this layer they DO have power. They can influence the life of people.
They can even kill and cause a lot of damage. They can.
But one layer deeper, this power does not exist any more. They do not have the power
to keep their power. They do not have the power to reach the hearts of people.
They do not have the power of salvation, of love, of eternity!

**Trust the Lord ...**
>
The only thing we can do is to trust the Lord with all we have and with all we are.
He is the Lord of Lords. He has the power to give power and to take power from
humans everywhere. He is the only one who can save. He is the source of all
love. And he is the beginning and the end - pure eternity is in him.
We can make big words about God's power, and yet forget it in our daily affairs.
It seems to be far away. Too often we lack the ability to break it down to our
daily things, let it be school or training or job or family. But God's power is
in everything. It is even in our mind and in our heart, when we have trusted our
life into HIS hands.
He, who has the power to shake the earth, will have enough power to be the king
of our life. He, who could raise the dead, has enough power to guide us through
our own personal trouble and distress. He, who has make kingdoms void, has enough
power to help us with our struggle today and tomorrow. Let us follow his path
and guidance, in truth and faithfulness!
