!!Day 4 Sorry I missed Monday...racing can be exhausting sometimes. So I’m listening to the radio and I keep hearing Drake’s hit song “God’s Plan”. I can’t really follow the lyrics but the chorus got me thinking about exactly what is “God’s Plan” for us?In Jeremiah 29:11 God tells us, “For I know the plans I have for you; plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.” So, what is God telling me? Big house, fancy cars, trouble free life? Not exactly. I think what he’s telling us is when we live our life by faith, according to his plan, we will be protected by his love and experience His grace. (2 Corinthians 5:7) Walk by faith, not by sight, right?Ok, so I will admit, I tried living my life according to “My Plan” and it led me to nowhere. But I did confirm one thing about “My Plan” and taking control over it, I couldn’t do it, I’m not equipped. If fact, I was awful at it! So, I willingly gave it to Him, walking by faith, praying for the guidance to stay on His path, not worrying about tomorrow and doing the best I can today. Do I get lost? Yep. Do I fail? Almost daily. But what makes it great is I’ve subscribed to His plan and I can’t wait for tomorrow’s issue to hit the stands. You see, while I don’t know what Drake is saying about God’s Plan is his song, I do know He’s leading me. Do I know where? No, but I know it’s going to be good and I know it’s His Plan not mine and I’m cool with that because “My Plan” stinks!Who’s plan are you following today?Peace,FMJ
