it’s often bigger than your plan…

if you’re overwhelmed today you may need this.  look at what GOD has promised.

in psalm 138.8 he does not say, “the LORD will work out my plans for my life,” or “the LORD will work out the plans i want for my life.”  it says (nlt), the LORD will work out HIS plans for my life.  you need to know this about GOD’s plan.

GOD’s plan for your life is often bigger than your plan, because GOD has a bigger perspective.  we are looking at the story of JESUS mother and all mary and joseph wanted to do was get married, settle down, put some meat in the crockpot and buy a condo!  just have a happy, little comfortable life.  GOD said, “no!  I want to bless the whole world through you.”  it was a slightly bigger plan.

you have no idea how much GOD wants to bless your life!  you have no idea what GOD could do through your life if it was totally, completely, absolutely sold out to HIM.  not just a part of your life.  but if every fiber of your being belonged to GOD and you said, “GOD, like mary, whatever you want in my life i’m willing to have it.  whatever you want, GOD.”  you have no idea how GOD could use you in great ways.  GOD’s plan is often bigger.

just a thought from the front porch…
