It seems to me that resistance is simply a denial of God...or a bolstering of one's ego, take your pick.
For instance, I read this morning that "the moment a thing seems wrong to you, or a person's actions to be not what you think they should be, at that moment begins your obligation and responsibility to pray for those wrongs to be righted, or that person to be different."
Need I say that I resisted that mightily? But, instead of just dismissing it as wrong, I studied it, and p.d.q. I saw another way to understand it...I remembered "If the only prayer you ever pray is 'thank you' that will suffice."
So I said to myself, "at that moment begins my obligation and responsibility to pray 'thank you' for those wrongs, for that person."
God can never not know what is right and what is wrong. He can, will and does bless it or fix it as He knows necessary and for the benefit of all concerned. My "thank you" simply affirms that for my ego's edification!
Thank You.
