Wonder why


Do you ever have days when God puts something before you and you don't really know why? 4 times today I read or heard about how God has plans.

I found hope in the Duggar's story as I read how God provided for them over and over as they waited and followed His plans for their children, home, and business. And I cried as I saw Arthur on the Biggest Loser hold his head high, stop the tears and declare, "I prayed to God 'you make this happen' and he opened up this path for me and if its his plan for me to go home tonight I'm gonna be alright." I knew every emotion that he was feeling at that moment, having no clue what God was up to.

"What we do for God is not something we manufacture; it is something God reveals to us when we are ready."-Tom Blackaby

I know God has plans for me. I know that even though others are counting down the days I have left, and pressuring me to plan my life, if I wait on God he'll show me what's next when I'm ready to know. I'm just kind of puzzled as to why God felt the need to lay all this out for me today when it wasn't really anything new...
But hey, I'm definitely not complaining! God's communicating with me and that is better than anything else in the world.
