E110-God's Plan Is The Only One

November 05, 2020 • Evelyn • Season 2020 • Episode 110

“God's plan is the only one.”

Many people like to make plans.

Some people live by their daily calendars and believe that anything they write down is going to take place at the exact time and day it is scheduled.

These plans may be just for the day, a future vacation, career changes, etc. The main point is that no matter what we may want to plan, things will always work out according to God’s plan.

I thank God for all of the many times He has shielded me from things that were not healthy for my life by saying “no!”

God’s YES(es) in my life are so much better than all of the things that I thought I wanted or needed.

Whenever you become disappointed because you did not get something that you wanted, just remember that God knows better for you! Accept His answer and plan for your life.

Prayers should not be considered as a direct line to getting our requests fulfilled.

Be grateful and thank God in advance for something that you know He will provide for you according to His plan.

Will you ink God into your daily life and pencil in everything else?

Ephesians 5:20 NIV
Always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
