I used to play The Sims 2 PC game. And during that time I was so far away from Jesus, but I was learning about here and there. Since I did not take out the time to learn more about him by reading the bible, he revealed the role of God to me in me playing a video game.
I had created many Sims, and I gave them their personalities and traits and clothes and families and homes. But even though I created these Sims' characteristics with and idea of how I wanted them to be, some of them did not come out the way I intended them to be. I thought I had given this one Sim some of the best characteristics a sim could have, but those characteristics didn't keep it from having free will.
There are several bars that have the Sim's ambitions and goals. Also there are bars that tell you the Sims' current needs and wants. For instance, the sim hasn't eaten in a while so you have to tell them to go get some food. But sometimes I tell the Sim to go eat and he wants to go and do something else. I see his wants, and I know what is more important for him to do, but he doesn't want to do it. And and one thing leads to the next and they are going all crazy. They look up at the screen (at me) and start complaining and having a fit. And I am like, ''I told you to go and.... LOL.
But after a while I started to get attached to the Sim's. And one time while my Sim's were sleeping a theif came into their house. The game options freeze and don't allow me to stop the thief from breaking in and taking the things that my Sim's had bought. I was mad at that thief (One day I put in a cheat code and glitched him out of the house. LOL).
And you know how the Sims get old. You see them grow up into adults and into old people. And one day, THEY ARE DEAD!! I mean really, my heart went after one of those Sims, it was a good Sim. And then the Grim reaper comes. And you can send a Sim over to the dead sim and have them beg (me) to bring the Sim back. The cry and mourn over the sim, and sometimes I was moved with compassion on the Sims. One thing I don't like is that they would have to go to the grim reaper and ask him to bring them back. But I was actually the one who could bring them back. As a matter of fact, one time a Sim died and was buried, but I brought it back with a cheat code. YES, I CAN DO ANYTHING!! I CAN HACK THE GAME IF I NEED TO.
And one day all of this stuff just clicked!! I realized that the same role I play in that game is the same roll God plays in this world. He directs us to do something, knowing our needs, but we and our wants try to trump him. And when things go crazy we look up at him and wonder. And same way with the thief, Satan is the thief of this world. But that thief has nothing on me. And sometimes I let the thief take some things, because they are in the way of my Sim's getting to their goals.
In the same way God has all power to resurrect the dead if he so pleases at any time. But sometimes it is more peaceful for a Sim to just go on and so that the next generation can come.
But one day a female Sim I had created, with good characteristics went completely against how I created her. For some reason she was attracted to other Female Sims, and I would be clicking buttons trying to get male sims to interrupt it, or making the other female sim walk away from her. But she would not change, and I was trying to get her to not do it. I got angry when she would not stop, and I was going to destroy her. But what I did is not ever enter that house again.
Anyhow. When I realized this I got a little overwhelmed. This revelation was just TOO MUCH for me. It made it all too simple. I thought it was a little too much.
Haha. But this was really nothing, and even now it might seem a little trivial, but Jesus met me on m level, and soon he would have me where he wanted me.
We have to move on in Christ. We have to obey God, because he has good plans to prosper us. He knows our needs, and he will allow Satan to take away our wants sometimes to help us. But he has all power over that thief. Always remember this, that Jesus has overcome death. He is the resurrection and the Life!! And no man can come to the Father except through him.
MAY JESUS BLESS YOU!
