Stop planning...

"many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that will prevails." Proverbs 19:21(NIV)

This is something I have always dealt with. I always have some kind of plan to do something bigger than me or to travel and speak different languages or to become some kind of philanthropist. I know we tend to think about the future and plan out things we want to do or become rich and famous or whatever it is we think we seem to know.

But the reality is...it does not matter what we think or what I think, if God is not in it. The Bible teaches us, that "many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that will prevails." Proverbs 19:21(NIV)

You should take some time to think and pray. A lot of times we go through our day and don't even have time to think to ourselves. Life becomes routine. 

I would like to encourage you, to take some time to think and pray about what it is God is speaking to you about. Because the reality is we can plan plan plan and nothing will ever come of the plan if God  isn't in it.

God has a purpose for us and it is not to waste it on thinking about ourselves and our own plans. Let's serve those around us and become the change we want to see.
