God wants to teach you.
One day, I closed from work, feeling terribly
bad. On my way home, I got some biscuits for my two kids. On reaching home, my
kids immediately snatched the biscuits. But just before I relaxed, my daughter
(the younger one) returned the biscuits and asked me to open it for her. I
quickly did.
Meanwhile, I noticed my older child still struggling to open his own biscuits. When he suddenly realized his younger sister had begun to eat hers, he hurried back to me and cried out, “Daddy, help me!” I laughed and opened his biscuits.
Suddenly, it dawned on me that I had been acting like my son. Instead of acting like my daughter who gave me back the gift so I could help her unwrap it, I was trying to maximize my gifts without God’s help.
Many of us fail to realize that God is a teacher who wants to teach us how to make the best use of the natural gifts He has given us.
