Learning to do things God's way

It's so easy to do things are own way, in that, we do things how we think they should be done and hope for the best in the end. But learning to do things God's way is definately a learning experience. We are a people who want control and want things to go a certain way. We make our plans and set goals for ourselves and even tell God how we think things should play out. Jeremiah 29:11 says that For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord. Plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you and hope and a future. His plans are not our plans but His plans are so much better than our plans. God already knows our future and his plan for our lives is one filled with his promises. He promises to to bring no harm to us and to give us a hope. That hope is in Jesus Christ and the salvation he brings to us through his death and ressurection through his shed blood on the cross. Our plans have to be in line with Gods plans, Proverbs 16:3 tells to commit your work to the Lord and your plans will be established. As believers we need to daily be asking God what his plan is for our lives. Do we commit ourselves to selfish desires, or worldly ways hoping God will give us everything we want? God desires for us to live for him fully and to serve him completely. Proverbs 16:9 says the Heart of a man plans his way, but the lord established his steps. Each step we take and every thing we do God knows and uses for our good and for His glory. Lord help me to walk daily in step with you and to trust in your plan for my life.
