Didn't see that coming...

I really wish that I had everything figured out.  Don't you?  It would make things so much easier, more predictable, and a whole lot easier to control.  But often times (and I am learning this more everyday.) -

I DON'T

Just when I think that I have the plan, something changes.  It is frustrating sometimes.  But there is comfort in the fact that God has everything under control.  Not our control... but HIS.  That is the key to this whole thing.  God is not having trouble making up His mind on what should happen.  Here is the problem- US.  We have it in our minds how we think it should happen and sometimes God has something else planned.  

It is so tough sometimes to follow God's plan and timing.  Sometimes, it flat just doesn't make sense to our mind.  But God's plan, even if it pans out to be different than we expected, is ALWAYS superior and better for us and we will be blessed in the long run.  And it is certainly not boring.  So, I challenge you, just as I challenge myself, go with the flow of God's plan for your life.  Learn to tune your hearts to Christ and listen for His leading and DO what He calls you to do.
