Lean Into God's Plan
Today's Scripture
"He went on a little farther and bowed with his face to the ground, praying, 'My Father! If it is possible, let this cup of suffering be taken away from me. Yet I want your will to be done, not mine.'" - Matthew 26:39 NLT.
Thoughts for Today
God has a plan for each of our lives—a good plan. He wants us to trust in him and his love and to lean into his plans for us.
As we make our plans and set our goals day to day, year to year, we need to submit our plans and our desires to him. We need to come to the point where we can follow Jesus' example and honestly say, "I want your will to be done, not mine."
Consider this
Sometimes God's plan is different from ours. But it is always better. He has the "big picture." He knows how all things will work together for the ultimate good.
God loves you unconditionally. Are you willing to return his love by saying, "Father, I want your will to be done, not mine."
Prayer : Our Loving Father, help me not to ever let selfishness or arrogance keep me from submitting to your plan for my life. I know you love me and want what is best for my loved ones and me. Help me give my desires to you and trust you completely. Thank you for hearing and answering my prayer. Gratefully, In Jesus Loving Name I Pray, Amen."
Have a Blessed Thursday and God Bless you.
