"Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand."
Proverbs 19:21
God is in control. We hear this promise. We know this promise. So why do we forget this promise when things are not going our way? Why do we continue to panic and react? Why do we try to fix it when He is the fixer of all things? No one can do what He is capable of doing so why do any of us even try? Like my father in law said so many years ago when he was dying, "If I die, I win for I will go home with the Lord and if I live, I win". What a brave statement from someone who was obviously scared. But his faith surpassed all fear. He had hope for He knew God had his life in His hands and what would happen would be of God and His plan. We must hold this truth in our hearts for our own life. It is the purpose of the Lord that we should desire. No matter what.
