GOT PLANS?

I  bet you have some plans for your life.  Maybe you’re thinking about  starting a business or going back to school or starting a family.   You’ve thought about it.  You’ve prayed on it.  You’re ready.  And since  you’re a good planner, you’ve already thought through how you’ll handle  the responsibility, and what kind of adjustments you’ll have to make in  your schedule, daily routine, budget, and relationships.  And if you’re  like me, you’ve also thought about what you’ll do when you’ve met your  goal.  Two weeks in Paris, anyone?  Yep, you’re ready.

Whatever  your plans, you’ve taken the time to think them through because you  want, no, you intend to be successful.  After all, who plans to fail?   And that’s a good thing.  Having a plan is a good thing.  Setting goals  is a good thing.  Making your own dreams come true is a good thing.

And  you know what?  God wants you to be successful.  He wants you to aspire  to good things.  He wants you to prosper.  God our Father loves you so  much that He has His own plans for you.  Big plans.  Huge plans.   Spectacular plans.  And as wonderful as you think your dreams are – and I  know they’re wonderful – God’s plans are even bigger and even better  and even more wonderful.  So wonderful that they exceed anything you  could ever imagine or even ask for yourself.

Whatever plans you  have, go ahead and get to work on them.  Give it all you’ve got.  Just  don’t be surprised when the outcome turns out to be even more, even  bigger, even better than you dreamed.  Cause our God has plans for you too.  Watch Him exceed your expectations!

May God bless your week!
