Over and over God declares he has a plan, a purpose for us. We are not wandering aimlessly....even when it feels like it. We are not "stuck" in a nothing profession with no hope for the future....because if we know God he is involved in our lives, our directions, our days. He has a plan, a purpose.
So what do I do when I can't see what's ahead? How do I respond when it feels like nothing is going in what I think is the right direction? Keep trusting him, keep doing what he has given you to do. He will direct your steps. He will show you the way.
I have often wondered about these things in my own life. It seems what I envisioned for my life, my goals, my accomplishments never turned out the way I had planned. And yet, as I look back, I can see a grand and wonderful helmsman steering the ship of my life on a course of his choosing.
My job, my rest comes in trusting his wisdom in where I go, what I become, what I accomplish. Through it all he says to me, "I will work out the plans I have for your life."
