Lordship of Jesus Brings Peace and Order

[S] 1 Corinthians 14:33,40 --
33 for God is not a God of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints.
40 But all things must be done properly and in an orderly manner. 

[O] These days I am so overwhelmed with activities after activities, at times I am really confused as to where I need to be when.  Even my responsibilities in ministry, I feel the same.  But Paul's writing here about when God is on the move, there is no confusion, and done in properly and orderly manner.  One indicator to look for whether God is in the center or not is the presence of His peace (no confusion), and things competed in orderly fashion.

[A] Whenever I get lost in the sea or confusion or out of order, then I need to take a break and come to the Lord and ask Him to be in the center.

[P] Dear Father, please continue to work through my life in orderly manner so that everyone would know it is You who are at the command central of my life and all of its involvement.  In Jesus' name.  Amen.
