Make your plans, but let God choose the path.

Today my mind is blank. Not that I have nothing to say (that would be almost impossible), but that I can’t seem to figure out how to make it all come together.  Ever have one of those days? One where you feel like you have done so much, but accomplished nothing? That has been my day, thus my brain is blank. As I sit down and reflect on the events of my day, I realize the wheel that I had perceived myself spinning on is of my own creation. Why? There was no wheel at all. Today I had a plan, things I wanted to accomplish. But as the day progressed and other responsibilities became more important, I was unable to accomplish my plans. However, that does not mean I didn’t accomplish anything. Hindsight has shown me that I may not of gotten my original plans completed, but the things that were completed, were the things necessary for this day. Many times miss we miss what “IS” needed because we are so focus on what we “THINK” is needed.  Today I accomplished not what I planned, but what was required for today. Why did I say my mind is blank? A blank mind means no preconceived beliefs. Today I learned, it is good to have a plan, but be opened for whatever comes.

“We can make our plans, but the LORD determines our steps” (Proverbs 16:9).

So what’s my plan of attack? Plan, but be open for what may come.
