We are responsible for our lives. That is stewardship. But God is sovereign. How is that possible? How can we be responsible for that over which God is sovereign? When a large business deal I had worked on for six months looked like it wasn't going to close, I asked my wife and son to pray about it with me. When it was my turn to pray I basically begged God to let the deal go through, then concluded, "God, you already know what's going to happen. In fact, you have sovereignly decided what is the pleasure of your will. Give us wisdom not to miss the way." When I finished, my son asked, "Dad, if God has already decided what's going to happen, why pray?" Good question. The full article is available FREE to registered users.
