James 4:13-15 "Come now, you who say,"Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit." Whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away. Instead you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that."
This Scripture is very humbling for all of us. We love to map-out our entire lives and yet forget that God may have His own plans for us. He will bless us and direct us in all we do if we are in the center of His will.
Let's be encouraged to keep busy while we're waiting, and pray about each plan we make, and ask God to show us if it is His will or not. We may just be pleasantly surprised at what He has for us!
