Proverbs 16:1-3 (The Message)
Everything with a Place and a Purpose
1 Mortals make elaborate plans, but God has the last word.
2 Humans are satisfied with whatever looks good;
God probes for what is good.
3 Put God in charge of your work,
then what you've planned will take place.
Well, here is what I am looking at! Rain and cold, only 39 this morning. I think our weather guy has missed it for a few days now. Oh well, we can't change the weather, but I had all these plans! Like working in my shop, (I have some florals to design) if our yard is not mowed soon, then goats will be the next thing on the list. I love working in my flower beds and we have so many of them that now I feel like I am getting behind! Is this the time to say "Woe is Me"? Maybe not that bad, but you know how it feels when our plans are thwarted? So what have I accomplished these past few days? Actually several things, my closets are clean and organized, windows and mirrors windexed, laundry caught up and my floors are clean. And, all these things needed to be done. You know sometimes we just have to stop and do a little evaluating. When things don't work out like we want them to, we really should not get discouraged. You see God loves us so much, He is always there to guide us, give us patience and show us what the most important things are. Yes, all these things were important to do, but they will be there when it is time. I believe for a Christian there is a time and a purpose for everything in our lives. And if He really causes everything to work together for our good, then we must realize those small things are included to. So as for this day, I am not going to get in a hurry to do anything, in fact being curled up on the sofa with two little poodles so close I can't move, the fireplace going and a cup of hot tea, I am perfectly content. lol. Just finishing my bible study for the day has given me hope and a purpose. Thank you sweet friends for stopping by, I pray your days is pleasant and filled with blessings.
