Detours
At the beginning of the month, I sat down to plan a list of “Lessons from the Road” post ideas. Looking at that list now, I see 12 ideas. I only posted 2 of them. The rest of this month’s actual posts were, I suppose, things the Lord wanted to remind me of or teach me, things I needed to hear much more than my meagerly listed ideas.
Here’s to detours, and here’s to this:
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”declares the LORD.
Isaiah 55:8
Can you look back and think of times you ended up somewhere completely unplanned for, and yet completely ordained by a God who knows much better than we do? I’m not talking about simple blog posts here.
I posted a song about this yesterday— a song that probably describes at least one experience, past or present, in each of our lives. I love the praise it gives the Lord for His Better Plan— the plan so much more amazing than our feeble strategizing, goal-setting, and/or calculating.
Rejoicing today over His Better Plan… thankful for His ways and His thoughts.
