Dallas Willard closes out chapter 1 of Divine Conspiracy
talking about kingdoms. We each have rule over our own kingdom,
which Willard defines as “the range of our effective will.” Many
people feel as if they have control over nothing and others think they are in
charge of a lot more than they actually are. For believers, God gave all
the people control over the living things on earth in Genesis 1, and He
has prepared an individualized kingdom for each one of us. As He sees
that we can be trusted with small things, He has promised to give us more
things to be responsible for. He wants us to be stewards of all the
riches that are available in the kingdom where He has invited us to live with
him – both now and after we leave our earthly kingdoms.
