Lately, I've found myself saying, "Well, if everything was going according to the plan..." yada, yada, yada. According to the plan?! What plan? Or better yet whose plan? Oh, that's right, I'm putting myself in charge of everything. How incredibly selfish of me.
This life, even, my life, isn't about me. It's about God. What does God want me to do? Where does God want me to go? What does God want me to say? I need to remember this when I'm thinking everything is not going according to my plan. I need to realize that maybe it isn't going the way I planned it, but maybe it's going exactly how God planned it.
So, remember, if you're thinking everything is messing up and not going according to 'the plan', maybe you're right on track with God's plan; you just can't see it yet.
"For I know the plans I have made for you. Declares the LORD. To prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jer. 29:11
God's plan for you is so much greater than anything you could ever dream up!

I understand exactly what you are saying! Sometimes I feel like I'm not where I thought I would be by this point in my life, but I forget that each of us is exactly where we are meant to be. Thank you for reminding me!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad someone else can relate!! Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who's not where I'm 'supposed' to be. :o)
