Apparently it does makes sense. Though
hard to believe, people – Christian people – try to control their Creator. And
they try to do this through being “good” people. I've written
before about Christians who get angry at God because He doesn't
fulfil His assumed obligation to “bless them” because of how good
they are.
In
this scenario these people try to manipulate God by saying to Him,
“If you make me and rich and powerful, possibly even famous, I'll
use those things to minister to other people.” They use their
obedience to “make” God give them what they want.
What's
really sad about this is that those of us who try to control God are
not only blind, but we're blind to our blindness. We're numb to the
motives of our heart. We cannot see the spiritual realities that are
absolutely vital if we're going to be transformed into the people God
wants us to be.
