Chance

Proverbs 16:33 NET
(33) The dice are thrown into the lap,
but their every decision is from the LORD.

There is no such thing as chance when it comes to the Lord.

My youngest two children love to play a game called Uno. I do not care for the game but will play it because I love them. It can seem chaotic and out of control at times because the flow seems to move the way the players want it to. A reverse can move the play in the opposite direction, draw 2 and skips can move players moves around them. But thought it seems like there is no control, there is because the way the cards are in the deck affects how we receive them and play them.

Likewise, we may think we have control of our lives, but like the game of Uno, the deck has already been laid out for us by God.

Never think you are the one that controls all. God is the one who is in control.
