The One Who Does It All

Everything you have 
Everything you own
Everything you feel, say, and do
is coming from God
You may not want to believe me
But if you think everything is coming from your own doing
You have another thing coming
God doesn't put people on this universe
for things to happen randomly, by chance
Everything has its purpose
down to the minute details
Did you ever think back why things happened, occurred
and not see the Hand of God working?
Did you ever see the rivers, the seas and how it's all woven together for His purpose?
Did you ever look at the moon, the stars, the sun and not think there is a Higher Being than us?
God made those
God made all of us
He creates us for His pleasures, for His blessings, for His adoration
God creates us for His fulfillment
The world wouldn't be like this if it wasn't for His hand
Before we bring on the negatives
Let's look at the positives
And you will see the negatives are actually working for the positives
Don't believe me?
How many times in the past did God actually teach you a lesson and helped you be stronger?
How many times in the past did something happened and the world became a better place?
Before you put God down 
Think - Wouldn't your life be a better place with Him or without Him?
Can you technically survive?
All the goods and bads are for a purpose
All the laughs and tears are to magnify His name
So you have feelings?
Do you know they are His feelings?
Yeah, He controls it
Don't kid yourself
You can be happy and sad in one moment flat
If He had a mind to
So give glory to Him 
And never take things for granted
As it would not be here today
if He hadn't brought it here
So glamor it, okay?
Glamorize the One who fulfills us
Glamorize the One who adores us
And gives to us
Honor His name
And give
