Scripture of the Day: JER 17:5-10, Psalm 1:1-2,3,4,6; Luke 16;19-31
When we are young, we set goals and plan for our future, often not thinking about the fact that the Lord has a plan for our lives. We do not understand that our thoughts are not His thoughts and His ways are not our ways; it is important that as we become more mature in our faith that we follow God’s plan.
We will make mistakes in life—I surely have. Nobody is perfect.
I have learned how to lean and depend on God to see me through life circumstances and situation(s)... “A man’s gift makes room for him, And brings him before great men.”
Proverbs 18:16 NKJV
