Write your plans in pencil and remember that God has the eraser.
God has plans for each one of us and at times his plan must intersect with our plans. Sometimes God’s plans line up with our expectations, but often, they surprise us. We have plans for our life, but God may have other plans. His plans are always the best, though they might come in the midst of disappointment, discouragement and difficulty. They might also lead us into greater challenges than we would have chosen for ourselves.
We are supposed to run the race God has set for us. Not the race we set for ourselves, not the race other people set for us, and not the race culture sets for us. We only run the race God has set for us. If we try to run any other course, we are going to fail and get discouraged. However, we must be aware that not all closed doors are really closed…not all barriers are erected by God…some are mirages authored by the enemy to discourage and misdirect..
If our plans don't work out we're not to worry, because God has better ones. That wonderful plan God has already designed for your life and mine contains the very best of Purpose, Adventure, Fulfillment, Joy, and new lessons. It will open doors and bring the right people to us. God’s purpose always carries with it God’s favor! ✞
Surrendering to God’s will is no little game…but rather the ultimate in adventure. Yes, God’s Will includes trouble, trials, and tragedy…but it also includes the problem-solver and God of all comfort, our Savior.
We must remember that our comfort is not important–God’s purpose is!
Blessings,
Dalinda
