This is a truth that many of us forget. I must confess that I forget this a lot. It is hard to understand what God is doing with my life when I don't have my life figured out. I am seeing a lot of my friends graduating from college, working in their dream job, or a job that they know they want, and so many of my friends are getting married or having kids right now. I did not graduate from college, I am working right now but do not feel like this is a job I want for the rest of my life, and I am nowhere near having a relationship. So you can understand how easy it is for me to forget this fact that God IS in control and the He DOES have a plan for me!
I am thankful for where I am in my life and the Lord is teaching me how to be content in my situation. I am learning that your status of being "in a relationship" or not does not define who you are and that a diploma does not necessarily show how smart you are or how much you know about life. My job may not be what I was hoping for, but it is a good job where I get a lot of hours and have been able to have Sundays off since I first started! So God has blessed me with this job and I will be happy with it as long as I have this job.
Thus I will DECLARE that God does have a plan for me and that I am in it right now and what is to come will come in His time and not my own.
"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope." Jeremiah 29:11
