Proverbs 16:1 To a man belongs the plans of the heart, but from the Lord comes the reply of the tongue.
Think what you want to think. Plan what seems right. But, wait for the Lord for the final decision. To live this way is to live in an exciting and close connection to the Lord!
How many of our plans have failed? How much frustration has there been when, for our best effort, things fall apart. There may not have been a problem with the plan but with the fact that we did not invite Jesus to have His say!
Learn with me the secret of success. Commit all your plans to the One who orders the universe. I am sure if we listen to what He has to say, AND if we are willing to yield to his wisdom, "our plan" will work out. It will work exceedingly better than we could have dreamed.
Commit all your ways to the Lord and He will bring order to your thoughts, and He will give sure direction to your steps.
Let's Pray: Father, in the Name of Jesus, your Son, I pray today that you would help me to start by being willing to come to You with every thought and plan I have. Then I ask that my ear would be open to hear what You have to say. Help me to know deep down inside that Your ways are perfect. And please give me the the grace to yield to your wisdom.
