The Help

Some people always cry for help. Everytime I see them, they have a :-( and the sad song. When you ask them what is wrong, they say I need help. Well, I have seen God answer that prayer. I have seen God go into other systems where people are perfectly fine being there, and send them to the people who need help. Now something interesting happens when folks come to help you.  All of a sudden you start feeling like they are coming to take your place and do a better job. Well you asked for help and help came.  Now you are offended by the help. So often we get offended by someone coming to help us do what God said to do. We get territorial about what God told you to do when you can't do what God told you to do because you need help. So did you push everyone away who came to help you and your job did not get done properly?  God please help us not to get offended by the help. God help us when he decides that he's going to send the help somewhere else. Maybe he will send the help somewhere where they will appreciate it. Maybe he will send the help somewhere where they understand how to treat people. They understand how not to hurt your feelings because they do something better than you. Pharaoh said to Joseph except for the crown you are higher than I. Pharoe did not feel threatened by Joseph and Joseph did not feel like he was being abused by Pharoe. It was a beautiful relationship and all of Egypt and all of Israel was blessed by it.  Sometimes an angel of light really comes as an angel of light. Let us not be offended by the help.
