Trust The Plan

March 31, 2025

“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.” Jeremiah‬ ‭29‬:‭11‬ ‭ESV‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬

Every day we fill our schedules with a myriad of things to do for work, home, and a variety of other reasons. Before we know it, our day is filled with meetings, agendas, appointments, and the like, and we can become robotic in going about our daily routines that we forget to pause and thank God for giving us the strength to accomplish those things on our schedules. As we are planning our days and months far in advance, we must also remember that our plans are subject to the things that The Lord has for us. The Lord had to remind Jeremiah that in all that he was going through, He knew the plan that He had for him. It was a difficult time for Jeremiah, but God reminded him that the plans were for his good and not evil, to give him a hope and future. God has great plans for you, just trust His plan for your life. Don’t allow anything or anyone to derail those plans, keep focused on The Lord and He will direct your path to the blessings that He has in store for you. Life has its challenges and some of the hurdles are difficult to maneuver, but I am convinced that The Lord knows the plans that He has for me, plans to give me hope and a future. Since my trust is in the plans that The Lord has for me, I have no doubt, “It’s My Year To Get My Thing From My God!”

Prayer:

Lord, thank you for having a great plan for my life. Lord, I trust the plan you have for my life, plans not to harm me, but to give me a hope and a great and prosperous future in you. I love you Lord. In Jesus Name Amen.
