Plans

“Within your heart you can make plans for your future, but the Lord chooses the steps you take to get there.”Proverbs‬ ‭16‬:‭9‬ ‭TPT‬‬

As I had spent many years writing financial  plans for people, I am used to plans. However, as a Christian I am well aware of how wrong I can be in my goals or my ideas about how I will achieve those goals.

I, now, tend to wait on the Lord for His plans, His heart about a matter, and not be too frustrated when my ideas fail or take forever to materialise.

For six weeks now I have been waiting for my ministry colleague to organise an NGO. Each fortnight when I am paid my pension I have the money ready for that purpose. However, God has had other plans. There are many needs here in Nepal.

He would have me spend according to His need, not my perception or plan. As I willingly go along with His plans my money stretches and lasts and is able to fulfill many needs, it is quite fun!

Yesterday I had a dentist appointment as I had broken a tooth. I was trying a new dentist, a woman. She was brilliant and the half hour she spent on me only cost the equivalent of $35AU. The same proceedure in Australia would have cost hundreds.

The Lord is definitely call the steps! He is a good boss! Amen!
