This is so hard for me. I got what is the best news in the world the other day. I know God has a plan for me and what will happen, it's just hard to find His strength in me. Honestly, I have to ways to look at it. I can see this as a mistake or part of His plan for me. I'm going to go with the latter half, and have seen it that way since the beginning. However, I feel at a very weak point in my life due to this news. I tend to be someone who plans in advance and likes to know what's going to happen. This has been a wake up call from Him. I now know that I'm not in control, and that He is the only one that knows. I am trying to find the courage and strength to just trust Him, to put my faith fully in Him and the plan he has for me.
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord,
"plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
Jeremiah 29:11
*Note: Just a heads up, "What an Adventure!" is a new series I have started to write. I will be posting it around Christmas!
Hey, I just want you to know that I am so proud of you. I'm glad that you're looking for God's plan. Something that I was thinking about when I read this... that I think it's amazing that even though we sometimes make mistakes, when we turn to God, He is right there to pick us up and He can use those things to help us. P.S. I'm excited to read your new series! :-)
