God does run the whole show. He also gave us free will, you may have noticed. We can ask him to ride along, he probably likes that.
We need to do more than just ask Him to ride along. WE NEED TO DO WHAT HE TELLS US TO DO. WE NEED TO GO WHERE HE TELLS US TO GO.
For too long "we" have been telling Him to buzz off. That ends badly. Every. Single. Time.
