I shouldnt be surprised. Gods role in bringing order out of chaos is a prominent biblical theme. He did it when He was creating the nation of Israel (Ex. 7-14). When God said it was time to bring the Hebrew people out of Egypt, Pharaoh objected. His nations economy depended on the Hebrew workers, so Pharaoh didnt want to lose them. To change Pharaohs mind, God sent 10 plagues to convince him. Pharaohs magicians were able to duplicate the first two plagues. But they could not reverse the plagues-any of them. They could cause chaos, but they could not restore order. Only God can do that. With effort, we can bring order to our living spaces, but none of us can bring order out of the emotional and spiritual chaos of our lives. Only God can do that. He restores order to chaotic situations when we live as God intended-speaking no evil, being peaceable and gentle, and showing humility to all (Titus 3:2). When we put our problems in Gods hands, He puts His peace in our hearts.
