GOD HAS A PLAN AND A PURPOSE FOR OUR LIFE

[thatscuteright]

God has a plan and a purpose for each of us and a specific way and perfect time to bring it to pass.

Much of our frustration and misery comes from either not believing that fact, or believing it but being determined to do things our own way and in our own time, determined to exalt our own will and timing above God's.

According to Isaiah 55:8, God's thoughts are not our thoughts, and His ways are not our ways. We want what feels good right now, but God has something far greater in mind.

We are constantly trying to figure out something we do not understand or trying to make something happen now that is not happening yet. It seems as if we are always trying, but believers are supposed to believe!

"Why, God, why?" and "When, God, when?" can be two statements that keep us frustrated and prevent us from enjoying peace. Many times we do not understand what God is doing. But that is what trust is all about. Let God be God in your life. Give Him the reins. He knows what He is doing.

Trust yourself and everything to God Who judges fairly and deals righteously. Deposit yourself in His hands and watch what He can do!

So true. Amen!

Yes, I agree wholeheartedly. It is still refreshing to hear now and again, though!

Awesome woman of God. Take these words you wrote hold tight to them and never, ever let them go.

Another common sense factoid but we often overlooking. Let Go and Let God!

Thanks for this, it has really encouraged me. May the Lord bless you all, my dear sisters. This forum is just about the only reason I still come to this site, you have all been so encouraging and such a blessing to me.

I really needed this because tody I was saying just those words - "Why, God". Right now I am just filled with a lifetime of hurt and sadness.
