Remember the movie “I Robot”, starring Will Smith? I loved it. “I Robot” was one of many manufactured (created) robots designed to help the world become a better place to live. A problem arose when the robots began to take on human characteristics, many of them taking on destructive behaviors, individual agendas, and doing things that their handlers couldn’t control. One of the ‘good’ robots, “I Robot”, took it upon himself to save the world from other destructive robots.

How are we to understand God’s answers? God says, if we “have ears that hear and eyes that see” (Prov.20:12; Matt. 13:16), we will hear and see what God is saying, trust in everything He gives, but also trust in what He withholds, knowing that He is always perfect in His judgments and always good in His decisions. That’s exactly what faith is (Heb. 11:1, 6).

Almost 70 years ago, I accepted Jesus as my Savior, and have known His assurance that He will take me to Heaven when I die. What an unbelievable gift!! However until about 20 years ago, I realized that I had never known Jesus the same way I've known other people. People that I could see, touch, audibly hear, and visibly see.

We live in a solar system called the Milky Way that contains 1 light source called the sun, over 200,000 billion stars, and 9 planets. The Milky Way is a spiral galaxy, and the sun is located about 30,000 light-years from the Milky Way’s nucleus on the Orion arm, and is held together by “gravity” (aka, ‘God’s power’).
Thinking about God's Sovereignty. A moment of reflection on your Journey to More:

I faced a dilemma last evening. I wanted to watch the last 9 holes of the Masters, yet I felt I needed to go to church. So, I DVR'ed (recorded) the last 9 holes so I could experience the finish, and watch Bubba take the "green jacket". I believe this to be a good analogy of how God's Sovereignty works in our lives.
God has "recorded" everything we've done and all... we will do, say or even think...and has done this from "the beginning of time.
My dear Abba, from the beginning, you have known me through and through and have seen who I am on the outside and on the inside. Yet before my beginning, you knew my name, loved me unconditionally, forgave my sin(s), chased me, drew me to Your side, and have used me for Your Glory...in spite of myself.
You are the ONLY One worthy of my love and worship. I love You with all my heart, soul, mind and strength. I can't want to see you fact-to-Face and fix my eyes on You forever.
Until then, my life is all Yours and all about You.
