I imagine life as one
long hallway. Every day you're walking down this hallway trying to reach
the door at the end. On either side of you the hall is lined with
doors. Some are good and others are bad.You have no idea what's on the
other side of that door, but He knows. He knows that on the other side
is His great plan for you. But only by taking the side doors will you reach that door. Day by day the Shepherd beckons you saying, "come My
child. Walk with Me." As you walk you pray, praying for
your Guide to open the right doors, and He does. But every now and then
He opens a door that looks so right, but the moment you try to step
through, He slams it shut again. "But it looked so right Lord!" you say.
"Yes My child, it did look right, but that is not what I have for you"
He says, "Just wait. Be patient. I have something far better in mind."
Everyone has a "plan" for their lives, but so does God. We
need to seek that plan, for our earthly dreams cannot compare to the
beauty of His heavenly plan for us. For as the heavens are higher than
the earth so are His ways higher than our ways, and His thoughts higher
than our thoughts. (Is. 55:9) God already has a plan for us, we
just need to wait on Him and follow Him. One thing we all know is that
God will NEVER lead us astray. Not seldom ever, but NEVER. So trust His plan. Trust the One Who made you to never lead you astray in life. Wait on Him.
While you're waiting what are you going to do??

The plans of the heart belong to man,
but the answer of the tongue is from the LORD.

"For the glory of the Lord!"
