Plans
The mind of man plans his way,
But the Lord directs his steps. Proverbs 16:9
Do you make plans in your head? How often do the plans you make in your head actually match up with what you have accomplished? I know there are many of us who plan and plan and plan, and it can be very frustrating when the plans don't go our way. A simple example is the game of baseball, it is a pastime played outside. What one thing do you need for baseball not to happen, that's right rain, lightning and sometimes fog. Yes, I know that is three things, but it is typically one uncontrollable weather event, and sometimes we let this one thing disappoint us. What about a chosen path we take that we have planned for, do we turn to God to guide us, or do we look too much at the end goal. By looking too far ahead, we can take our perceived steps to accomplish our task and get disappointed when the plan doesn't work out. God will get us there, for all our plans, we just need to rely on Him. So, quit making plans and expecting to follow your own ideas and follow his guidance for our plan.
Have a great weekend.
Matt
