Yep, as the Psalmist said (and we used to sing) "I trust in You, Lord, I say, "You are my God." My times are in Your hand"

I learned my lesson a few months back when ordering from a distributor in England. Took me 6 weeks to track it and finally reissue shipment. DHL could not care less.

So Mrs fuego ordered something from Bath & Bodyworks. So it says it's delivered but nothing on our porch. We assumed it had been stolen. It comes to Ellenwood GA Fedex first before it goes comes to our house, which is not far from us. But we got to looking at the delivery, and it was delivered to an address in TN, not our house, after going to the Ellenwood locateion right by us first. So there's not doubt to us that that was an inside job, someone sending it to a friend. No way with our address on it that it can be delivered to an address in TN that doesn't even read close to our address.
So we call B&BW and they send another one, and it's delayed and we see a message about a bar code being messed up and having to be replaced and is supposed to be here Monday. So as the meme says it's in God's hands now. lol.

The annual Christmas box from my sis for us and dd and family seems to be MIA. USPS tracking says it was delivered to our front porch but they are showing the wrong zip. No word on our inquiry with the post office.

I've also heard of deliverers showing as delivered and stealing it themselves. Or taking a pic of it on the porch like Amazon does and then taking it with them.

"Blame God"? NEVER.
"Calvinists" don't "blame God", they Trust Him; they are Secure in Him; they are Safe with Him; they are Protected by Him. They honour Him for who He is.
As the songs go, "On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand" and "Leaning, leaning, Safe and secure from all alarms"
As Spurgeon said, "we sleep peacefully and walk strong"
As J I Packer said, "we have no fear, we walk on solid ground"
These are the attributes of our God, what He is, what He always was, and what He always will be. "Responsible" is NOT one of them.
And this is how man is Nikos.
that is why we don't blame God. Because we know that it is we that are evil. God is Holy.
P.S. This verse illustrates how secure we know we are and how secure we'd love others to realise they are.
