God’s Plan

Do you know anybody who had their life turn out exactly as they had planned?  Did you know that this is where you were going to be in your life?  Do you make the salary that you had dreamed of?  How about the picture perfect family with the house with the picket fence?  Are you doing the job that you had always wanted to do?  Are you living where you had always planned?  After you stop to look at some of the things that has happened that you had not planned on, you realize more and more that you are not in control.  God is!
​Throughout the Bible, you will find examples of how plans didn’t work out for people but it worked out according to God’s Plan.  The story of Joseph comes to mind.  His brothers were jealous and decided to get rid of Joseph.  It was sin that drove them to do this but God made it work out for good.  Just look at all the people that Joseph was able to save from the famine!  Look at everything that happened to Joseph that was all according to God’s Plan.

​How about Mary?  She was planning on getting married, having a family, and living her life.  What a change of plans!  God changed those plans for her to conceive through the Holy Spirit and give birth to God’s Son.  What amazing faith she showed by just accepting what God had planned for her!  She truly trusted in God’s wisdom and His Plan.
​Our moms here at New Beginnings had plans too.  They were perhaps planning on continuing the struggle to support themselves, to find yet another shelter who would take them in, or perhaps they had no plan at all and was just living day to day in an effort to survive.  What a wonderful thing that God’s Plan brought them to New Beginnings!  Each mother now has a safe and stable place to have her baby.  They learn new skills and hear God’s Word daily.  The mothers here are gaining an education to get a degree and will then be able to find a job to be able to support themselves.  I’m sure that being a young, single mom with no place to go was not in their plans but according to God’s Plan, it brought them here to make a New Beginning.
​How has God changed your plans?  In the comments section below, let me know how God has led you to where you are now?
