Life's Plans

As human beings, sometimes in life we make plans and tell ourselves "this is what we are going to do with the rest of our lives." 

The last couple of years have punched a hole in that, right?

Life's highway are filled with winding turns, unexpected delays, breakdowns, and unfortunately accidents. 

     We can start off in our minds envisioning a well thought out plan to get us to our desired destination ........only to later find that road is closed or under construction. 

"Often times our fondest shortcuts

 lead us into major traffic jams"!

It seems to be increasingly difficult even for God’s people to make correct decisions!  

     It's not that God has changed but, because our lives have radically changed. 

     Well, there's one thing for sure......“You can make many plans, but the LORD’s purpose will prevail.“ (Proverbs 19:2)

"A man’s mind plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps and makes them sure.” {Proverbs 16:9}

Another thing we've learned of late......

keep your

 plans 

flexible!

Though we serve an awesome God, our internal GPS must be calculated and continually updated by our Creator......not with our own agenda.  

     We are given a clear road map called the Word of God.

 

Daily we must consult our guide, the Holy Spirit for direction and wisdom.  Then, we must trust Him!

“The path we walk is charted by faith, not by what we see with our eyes.” (2 Corinthians 5:7)

When we are led by Him, 

obedient and walk with Him, 

He will be honored! 

It's about Jesus - only Jesus! 

Proverbs 3:5,6  says, “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”
