When God doesn't make sense...

When God doesn't make sense
I need to get off the fence

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11

Just when I think I have God figured out He changes things on me. I think I know what he is going to do... And boom, he does something else? I sit here and shake my head and wonder what is God up to today? I really don't kow! But, I do know one thing. God stays steady even when I can't make up my mind. I think I want one thing, then something happens and I think, "well maybe I really didn't want that after all"!

In reality, God didn't change his mind, I changed mine. When I focus on what God has planned for me and quit trying to put my two cents worth in, is when things really begin to work out. God knows all along what he wants to do and it really has very little to do with my thoughts. It's not that God doesn't care what I think. He does. But he has such a better plan than mine that I really can't try to even make plans because if I really listen to God and focus on His best for my life, then my plans are not the point anyway.

Go with the flow. God's flow! Only God knows what is best and I am his servant anyway. And that is really where I want to be!
