Before we were even formed in our mothers’ wombs, God had great and wonderful plans for each one of us. It\u2019s common for us to hear: \u00a0\u201cFollow your heart,\u201d when we ask for advice. \u00a0 But because our hearts and lives are so fragile, they must be handled with prayer.\u00a0 Being human as we all are, we fall short of the perfection and glory of God.\u00a0 The plans we have and make for ourselves and our loved ones are often made to the best of our abilities; but, as those of us who are old enough remember from the love of the sitcom, our heavenly Father Knows Best.\u00a0 Not only does He have the best plans for each and every one of us, but He alone is able to accomplish them in ways that remind us that his love is ever-present.\u00a0 His power is unsurpassable, and his love is unconditional.<\/span>\"Pigeon.As we grow \u2014 and often groan \u2014 into our futures full of hope, it becomes ironically clear that man plans, and God laughs.\u00a0 It\u2019s sad but true that so much of the time we really don\u2019t know what\u2019s good for us.\u00a0 We have bought the lies of the world, the flesh and the devil, when it comes to thinking about what we actually want or need from this life.\u00a0 And then Christ comes, changing everything!\u00a0 Because of his perfect, tremendous and unconditional love, He will never let us falter long, as long as we trust in Him.\u00a0Good Shepherd of my soul, you always know well the plans you have for me; and my future is in your hands because of your life, death and Resurrection.<\/span>\"Pigeon.<\/span><\/div>\n
Victory is mine, if only I seek your will instead of my own.\u00a0 Thank you for reminding me day by day, Holy Spirit, to give all of my plans to you so that they will all succeed.\u00a0 If you tell me to go right, I will go right. If you tell me to go left, I will go left. When you tell me to be still, I will be still.\u00a0 Day and night I will praise you and trust in your holy Word, so that \u00a0streams of living water continue to flow through me.\u00a0 Restore me totally to the plan and purpose for which I was created in your love.\u00a0 The only resistance I want to give is to resist every wile of the enemy.\u00a0 Here\u2019s my heart, Lord; speak what is true, conforming my plans to yours.\u00a0 For your lovingkindness, oh Lord, is better than life!\u00a0 Your plans for me are all good.\u00a0 Jesus, have your way in me.
