BE IT GOD’S WAY !!!


A king once examined the economic status of his kingdom. He came to know that birds ate away some portions of the grains produced in fields.

He was worried with thoughts of how to save the crops. He passed an order saying: “Kill all the birds in the kingdom. Everyone will be rewarded as per the number of birds he kills.”
People began killing the birds. Soon, all the birds in the kingdom were dead. The king was relieved and thought that the problem was solved. But now when the grains were weighed, it was found that they weighed much lesser than before. The king was surprised how it had happened. On investigating further, it was found that insects and worms were eating away the grains. It never occurred to the king that along with the grains, the birds ate the insects and worms too, due to which a lot of grains were saved. When the birds were no more, the insects had devoured entire fields of some farmers. But nobody had thought of it.
The intellect of man is very limited. With this limited intellect, he judges things to be right or wrong. How can the ‘limited’ understand the ‘unlimited’? How can man’s little intellect understand the infinite? Man with his little intellect, makes an effort to make an improvement in whatever God has created or set on course. He tries to rectify whatever he thinks is going wrong. But as his understanding increases and he realizes that,"God’s will is my will." He understands that everything is happening beautifully. Nothing could have been better.
So, it is clearly understood from the story that God has set an order to each of His action and any attempt to change it will bring only disastrous results.
We see many events happen in our life which defy explanation and put God under a question mark. Under such circumstances, we look at situations with only one point of view and make assumptions about it – we never pay attention to other angles – to see it from God’s point of view.
If God has allowed you to go through a certain painful path, there is definitely a reason behind it. Only this understanding can help us get rid of every fears and anxieties and strengthen us to walk through any horrid situation.
Dear friend, God has a definite plan for each one of us. So, let’s learn to accept things as they are and move forward in life with the knowledge that God is in full control of our lives and He is mighty enough to lead us till we breath last.
