VERY LITTLE REAL POWER

Human beings have very little real power over their lives. Ninety-five percent of what set the course of their lives is completely out of their control. This includes the century and place they are born in, who their parents and family are, their childhood environment, physical stature, genetically hardwired talents, and most of the circumstances that they find themselves in. In short, all we are and have is given to us by God. We are not infinite Creators, but finite dependent creatures.

Tim Keller

NO PROBLEM

Wither shall I flee
From Thy presence?
present no problem
when one ignores
who owns
the sea
and the sky.

You, Jonah!
