Plans?

Have you ever just sat down, and thought about where life is taking you? About the road your on? Why are you on that road in the first place? Where are you going to be in 5 years? Do you have a plan? 

Planning your life seems to be so simple when you're not in the position to act on those plans. It's easy just to sit back and not worry about what classes you need to take, or what job you need to apply for. But why is it so hard to narrow down what you want to do? What can make these life changing decisions easier? I have one answer, His name is Jesus, and In his word he says "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11. In Christ we have a hope and a future, without Christ we are damned to hell forever. 

Now as a Christians, most of the time we want our plans to be God's will. How do we find out
God's will for our life? The answer is simple; do what you want, and He will tell you if that's His will or not. If God wants you somewhere else, He will move you.  But is that really the way to find God's will for your life? Yes. Does it always work? Yes, if you are submissive to him and you listen, and obey His voice. Will it be easy? No. Name one Christian in history who had it easy! But whether it's easy or not doesn't matter, it's if we choose to obey him once we have arrived where he wants us. 

 So it doesn't matter if we have every step of our lives mapped out, or we have nothing planned at all! If we choose to have faith, and trust in our Creator, then our lives will turn out exactly how God has planned them to go. He hold us in his hand, and loves us unconditionally! No matter what we do, His Will is worked into every part of our lives, and if we choose to obey him, we will glorify him! And isn't that's what it's all about in the end? Glorifying God?
