“YOU WILL NOT FIND GOD’S PEACE by engaging in excessive planning: attempting to control what will happen to you in the future. That is a commonly practiced form of unbelief. When your mind spins with multiple plans, Peace may sometimes seem to be within your grasp; yet it always eludes you. Just when you think you have prepared for all possibilities, something unexpected pops up and throws things into confusion. GOD did not design the human mind to figure out the future. That is beyond your capability. GOD crafted your mind for continual communication with HIM. Bring GOD all your needs, your hopes and fears. Commit everything into GOD’S care. Turn from the path of planning to the path of Peace.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. 1 PETER 5 : 6 – 7
In his heart a man plans his course, but the LORD determines his steps. PROVERBS 16 : 9
Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass. PSALM 37 : 5 (NKJV)
Prayer: Lord I bring you all my needs, my hopes, and my fears. I lay them at your feet. Help me not to hold onto anything tighter than I hold onto you. I can always count on your plans for they are always for my good. And when I don’t understand and life is hard, I trust you are weaving a grand story together, using everything for my good and the good of others. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
