A ROLL OF THE DICE

In the book of Acts when the disciples were waiting on the HolyGhost to come on the day of Pentecost they cast lots(dice) to determine who would take the place of Judus. I thought that strange. Matthias was chosen with prayer and a roll of the dice. He was chosen from the followers of Christ. Man's idea of the right thing to do. God however, though He allowed it chose from sinners, in fact he chose a murder of Christians Saul who would later be known as Paul. Matthias was chosen by the brethern. His destiny was chosen by men a roll of the dice and we never hear from him again. We don't hear of him healing, preaching, baptizing, nothing. Yet Paul whom God chose ended up preaching, teaching, starting churches, baptizing with the Holy Ghost and wrote most of the New Tesament. I looked up about lots casting. Of course we are familiar with the scripture that says they cast lots for Jesus's garment. Other scriptures...

Has your destiny been decided by the roll of the dice by the religious crowd or by mom and dad?
Or have you answered a call of God? I wonder how many marriages have been formed because the church decided they should be joined or family or friends decided they would be perfect together. I wonder how many asked God and then waited for His answer? A roll of the dice....a Holy thing or a man thing?
