A friend of mine held a high-ranking position in the US Embassy in Cambodia.  He invited Kathaleen and I to visit him and his family.  At the airport in Phenom Penh, I knew instantly he had authority.  We were escorted past those waiting for Immigration/Customs.  We were treated as if we were important!  Kath and I had to navigate our way from Seattle to Taipei, to Bangkok, and finally to Cambodia.  That was our responsibility.  BUT … over the entire trip, and all our time in country, it was clear he had the influence and power.

It’s a weak analogy to our relationship with God … but there are some connections.  God has given us certain freedoms and responsibilities … but we must not forget who is actually in control.  God has all power.  He always has and always will.

In Christ,
