A Life Plan God's Plan For Me
Tuesday March 6, 2018
Many of us lost our way because of unfortunate events that happened to us, or around us. For a variety of reasons, we were unable to see a life plan for our future and allowed ourselves to be drawn into an addictive and destructive lifestyle. Even now, as we come into recovery, we are unsure of who we are or where we fit in society. We desperately need our understanding to be transformed so we can embrace the purposeful life that God has marked out for us.
From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us. ‘For in him we live and move and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.’ (Acts 17:26-28 NIV)
To be successful in our life plan we need to believe that there is a God who created us. We are made in God’s image and His plan for us is to live meaningful lives, secure in His unfailing love for us. As members of the human family, God has gifted each of us with qualities that make us unique. These abilities are meant to equip us in fulfilling the amazing plan God has for us. If we seek Him, God will work together with us to complete His good purpose for our lives. His Holy Spirit will come and live within us to guide and empower us each step of the way.
May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it. (1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 NIV)
When we come to the realization that God has a good plan for our lives, we should embrace every opportunity to discover what that plan is. As we quickly respond to God’s direction, we will find life more pleasing than we ever dreamed it could be.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, I choose to give my will and life over to Your care. Please strengthen and empower me to follow the path You have prepared for me to travel. Amen
