Plans.

My whole life I've been preoccupied with plans; making plans, re-evaluating plans, changing plans, sticking to the plan. I don't know about ya'll but I've always had a plan for every stage of my life. I've always try to have a plan to guide my way and to reference where I am going. A noble goal or extravagant task to complete. However, lately I've been constantly reminded about the insignificance of my plan and how it keeps God's plan out of the equation. 

"If we are attempting to do noble or difficult things, we assume that we must be experiencing the maximum potential for our lives and that God must, therefore, be pleased with us. Until we have heard from God, we cannot imagine all that our lives could become or all that God could accomplish through us." Henry and Richard Blackaby 

Lord, I pray that we remind ourselves of God's big picture and that we have limited imagination compared to God. I pray we are able to follow God's direction and be witness to things so powerful that they can only be explained by God working in our lives.

"Now to him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us." Ephesians 3:20
