The Plan - Our's vs. Gods

Prior, proper, planning, prevents, poor, performance is the mantra of an organized person. What happens when things are not going as planned? We all like to "control" our lives but when events unfold differently than we had anticipated we are uneasy at best.

There comes a point when we realize that we are not in control of anything except our attitude in any given situation. Let go and let God is the best plan of all asking for guidance each step of the way. Leaving our faith and trust with God during the "good" times seems to be the challenge.

Once things are "going" as planned we think "We" are the ones in control. This is our delusion. At times we may get a glimpse of something we've always wanted. Then we are shown that the timing isn't right. At times like that we need to know that God's delays are not God's denials.

There is a good reason for all that happens even though we can not see His perfect plan. Keep the faith and trust that all is unfolding as it should in God's perfect plan.
