Racing and No Instructions

May 27, 2019

When God showed me the book of Jonah after watching my little boy piece together a lego toy, half using the instructions, I was confused. Reading further, though, it made perfect sense. Aren’t we all so guilty of assembling things by our own set of rules, pocketing what’s left over as extra parts? What about when someone else’s box of legos built something completely different than ours? Didn’t we buy them at the same place? This episode talks about what it means to follow the instructions piece by piece, being careful to not compare outcomes along our way, trusting that God knows infinitely more, infinitely better, than we do.
