Changing My plans into God's plan one day at a time.



Do you ever start your day with a million to do's yet by the end of the day you if lucky managed to get one of those things done. We often make our plans yet stop to realize that unless we include the plan maker we just dug ourselves in a big hole made our own plan b. 


Today I planned to eat healthy. I ate a good breakfast and was feeling pretty good so far until the thought of taking the kids to Mc'donald's for lunch crossed my mind. I told myself that i would eat a salad and be good. Well, the smell of the fresh fries and thought of eating another salad (esp from mc'donalds) was so overwhelming that i caved. This set me on a downward spiral of poor choices all day and yet the God gently reminded me that i didn't include him in my plans today. I didn't pray for His strength or seek his face for the grace i needed to get through today. 


You see I planned my day....and without hesitation i automatically went into plan b and had no willpower to stop what I had originally planned to do. I dug my hole and sank deep. 


My reason for this blog is personal. I want to change how I plan...and let Go and Let God plan my day. This always is easier than said but yet one verse Comes to my mind...


For i know that plans for you declare the lord, plans to prosper you and not harm....plans to give you hope and a future. 


I really don't want to stock up on shovels so i'm going to day by day allow God to control my plan. Here we go!
