Thoughtful Starter:
What do you hope to accomplish today?
Today’s Scripture Reading: Isaiah 55:9
“For just the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways and my thoughts are higher than your thoughts”
Here’s a thought: Grab a pen and paper or your Notes app and write down the things that you want to do today—your to-do list. Tomorrow, check that list.
Chances are, not all that you wrote there were met.
For some reasons, you couldn’t do all the things that you wrote there. Probably, there were more important things to do, you had to travel, or your were preoccupied.
A quote from my favorite author, Paulo Coelho shared, “The more we plan our steps, the more chance there is that we will go wrong because we are failing to take into consideration four things- people, life’s teachings, passion, and calm.”
There’s nothing wrong with planning.
However, planning without limits is detrimental.
When we plan and we allow life’s miracles to unfold, our plans turn into His plans and it becomes transformational.
Today, we plan and we surrender them to Him.
Let’s remember that our vision is only on our path, He sees the road ahead. Trust in His guiding hands.
Today’s Reflection Questions:
What are your goals that you need to surrender to Him? Let your goals be His instrument to transform your life.
Today’s Prayer:
Lord, be with us in every phase of our lives. May every plan that we take and decisions to make be made in the glory of Your name. Amen.
