In planning life, it's natural to gravitate towards comfort and avoid risk, often crafting plans based on our limited perspectives. Yet, Proverbs 19:21 (NIV) reminds us, "Many are the plans in a person's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails."
Embracing a life of faith, grounded in prayer, opens us to the vastness of God's vision far beyond our own. In this surrender, we find the courage to step beyond our comfort zones, driven not by fear but by the promise of His unfailing presence and provision.
Trusting in God's plan invites a profound peace and purpose into our lives, transcending the temporary gains of our limited ambitions. Let this faith be the compass that guides us, revealing the abundant life that flourishes under God's loving direction. Placing yourself consistently in the hand of God will always result in more than your own plans could possibly achieve.
