The Pencil, Paper & Eraser

Life is bridled with diversity. Different people take on different roles. To Wale Adenuga, “We are nothing but pencils in the hands of the creator.” Not everyone is agreed on that notion though.

Some people believe that we are the paper and we have no right to decide what is written and what is erased; we just take whatever we see.

Some would agree that we are the erasers, tools meant to erase whatever written clause we don’t agree with.

Some don’t even believe that a creator exists. They think everything just happens by chance; how delusional.

Howbeit, some people don’t even believe that there is an eraser; their policy is “What is written is written.”

But what is the real truth? Does God hold the pencil or does he just oversee the one who does? Does the erasing occur by chance or is it instigated by the pencil’s error? And if it is, then who discerns when the writer makes an error?

Is there a God at all or is it nature that governs all the different processes taking place around us? What is nature? Does it exist? Who created it?

Oh, you just gave a silent answer to that saying “Well God had to create nature.” But what about the atheists who believe that we are all a big accident; subatomic particles colliding to form atoms and so on… I guess everyone is entitled to their own opinions.

These questions can only be completely answered from a divine perspective; every attempt to comprehend them from a human point of view would just prove futile. All we can do is accept the things we cannot change, have the courage to change the things we can and pray for wisdom to know the difference.
