Word Filled Wednesday ~ Plans



A new year; new plans.

As I venture out to  pursue my goals, I'm reminded that God is ultimately in control.

I pray for wisdom.  I pray for guidance.

And then ...I rest in Him.

After all, He knows me and loves me.  And He alone knows what's best for me.

In the midst of the unknown ...I have peace.

Join in for Word Filled Wednesday at The Internet Cafe.


Blessings and love,

  5. So very true - and words of encouragement to all of us in the Sandwich Generation dealing with the issues of caring for the elderly parents in the family and helping with the grandkids. I can't tell you the number of times God has totally changed my plans or turned them inside out - but He always works them out and me out wonderfully. Have a blessed Word-Filled Wednesday.

  9. Hi, Debbie
    Maybe it is because of my age, but what I have come to realize is that we are pretty much always in "the midst of the unknown."

    Thankfully, yes, we can still have peace. God bless you - Marsha Y.

  10. Debbie,
    What a rich Word from the Lord today as we look forward to 2011. I am asking God for wisdom personally and in ministry. I seek Him and want His direction. Thanks for the reminder.

  12. Rest. Quite a word, isn't it? I could sit long and ponder it's depths. Learning to work while resting has been my lifelong challenge. Getting the exact doses of each in right order can be trickly.

    Enjoy the remains of 2010's days. Hope to see you in 2011 on my next trek through ...

    Kathleen

    P.S. Praying for you and the wonderful opportunities that remain in the shadows.

  16. praying the same thing, love what you said "and rest in Him" Sometimes when i pray for something, instead of resting in Him, i still doubt and worry and lots of what ifs in my mind. Thank you for this timely reminder.

    Happy New Year!

  17. Great photograph and powerful message, Debbie.

    This year my theme is "All is Good, because God is in control". I just hope I don't take back the control as I usually do.

    Love & peace,
