acknowledging God

LET God be God.
LEAVE all doubts, anxieties and concerns to God.
LEARN to trust God's means, ways & timing.

Consider Joseph's life.

Because Joseph saw God as engineer of all his circumstances, he was able to confess before his own brothers who'd sold him into slavery years ago out of spite.

"And now, do not be distressed and do not be angry with yourselves for selling me here, because it was to save lives that God sent me ahead of you. For two years now there has been famine in the land, and for the next five years there will not be plowing and reaping. But God sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant on earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance. "So then, it was not you who sent me here, but God..." Gen 45:5-8

Can you make such confession as Joseph did?
