God is Not Our Virtual Writing Assistant

By DiAnn Mills @DiAnnMills

We’ve all read quotes and Scripture about the role God plays in all areas of our lives I’ve even heard He’s my virtual assistant. While that sounds noteworthy … that aspect is not Biblical.

12 Qualities of a Virtual Assistant

  1. Capable of working under pressure
  2. Faithful
  3. Honorable
  4. Imaginative
  5. Precise
  6. Quick-thinking
  7. Reliable
  8. Responsible
  9. Respected
  10. Self-motivated
  11. Stellar communication skills: listens and speaks
  12. Trustworthy

No one can dispute the above 12 qualities are an undeniable part of God’s character. But what’s the difference between hiring a virtual assistant to enhance our personal and professional writing careers and initiating God’s help?

12 Qualities of God

  1. Eternal
  2. Faithful and True
  3. Gracious
  4. Holy
  5. Immutable
  6. Just
  7. Love
  8. Merciful
  9. Omnipotent
  10. Omnipresent
  11. Omniscient
  12. Wise

Any virtual assistant would fail to measure up to God in all 12 qualities. That is why He is God. He is in control. And we belong to Him … not the other way around.

It never hurts to remind ourselves that He is God and we are not. Now is the time to evaluate our relationships with God. Do we need to make changes?
