You can make your choices.
You can’t choose the consequences.
V If you marry the man all your friends and family begged you to leave alone, when it falls apart, that’s not God trying to teach you endurance.
V If you’re in a hurry and you get a ticket going 50 mph in a 35 speed limit zone, that’s not God trying to teach you patience.
V If you are exposed abusing your position and are publicly embarrassed, that’s not God trying to teach you humility.
V If you spend time complaining about your job and being critical of your coworkers, when you lose your job, that’s not God trying to teach you to trust Him.
V If you compromise your health by letting your appetite get out of control and have to go on a strict diet, that’s not God trying to teach you self-control.
V If you get caught gossiping and people all around are mad at you, that’s not God trying to teach you to love your enemies.
V If you slap-hazardly do your project, and it has to be done over causing you twice as much work, that’s not God trying teach you perseverance.
V If you elect ungodly people to run your country, and the economy takes a nose dive…that’s not God…He most likely is standing back and watching you try to do it without Him.
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. Galatians 6:7
