Can we see something is wrong, and not be able to do anything about it?

One time, I looked out of my window and saw a car with it’s window open, and the rain was falling. Then I had the thought of, “Sometimes, you can see something is wrong, and not be able to do anything about it.”

The car window was open, as the rain was coming down. Someone’s car was getting wet, and I could do very little about it. 😦

I didn’t know who the car belonged to. I would have liked to have helped, in some way. Possibly by saying, “Hey, your car window is down and it’s raining.” But to who?
If I’d gone out and tried to put the window up myself ….. Then would I have looked like I was trying to do something, that was undesirable???

So, I just had to accept that, sometimes, you can see that something is wrong, and you just can’t do anything about it.

As I’ve been writing this, a few thoughts have been coming to me. Such as, couldn’t you have knocked on your neighbours doors, and asked them?
Couldn’t you have gone outside and shouted about it, or sounded your car horn?

In some respects, it’s true. I could have tried one of the above options, but, the thought that came to me, at the time, was, “Sometimes, you can see that something is wrong, and you just can’t do anything about it.”

Based on the thought, I turned away, and just left it.
(All I did was write the title of this blog post down.)

Is this the bit that matters most?
Hearing what your Heavenly Father is speaking to you at any given moment, and then just following it’s leading?

It maybe difficult to walk away from some things, that we can see are wrong, but if we are being told, “This is Somebody else’s Problem.”
Then shouldn’t we just walk away?

Hearing, and following Our Lord God’s thoughts, should be our best leading, for how and what we should do.

Heavenly Father,
If You tell us to leave something alone, then please help us to do just that.
Help us to leave it, in Your hands.
Please give us a peace about it, so that we can then trust, that it is in Your hands.
Please help us to not worry about the things, that we have little or no control over.
Instead, please help us to hand them over into Your hands, and to leave them there.
For You, are able to deal with all things.
Our Loving Heavenly Father.
Amen.
