“O Lord, I will honor and praise your name, for you are my God. You do such wonderful things! You planned them long ago, and now you have accomplished them.”Isaiah 25:1 NLT
How many of us talk about things we planned long again that came to pass just as we had planned them? How many of our plans have changed? Yet, our God perfectly planned how we would come to know Him and walk with Him. He saw us before He ever knew us.
I am told that the Chinese, as a culture, make long term plans. I cannot boast such endeavours. Many of my plans have not come to pass, fortunately, the Lord’s for me have. I know the only plan I have that I am sure that will come to pass is my loving the Lord and serving Him.
I am blessed with seven grandchildren. Last night I wrote to my granddaughter Ellie. She promptly wrote back with a girly, newsy email. I delight in her. I am reminded in how my God delights in my news and my prayers. I pray for my granddaughter’s future and know that my God has plans for her. This help me understand my God’s love for me.
Today I continue to be involved with my Nepali friends and tonight we have guests coming. I enjoy our times with others. Fellowship and friendship is a blessing. Amen!
