Making a Plan

In this powerful message, we're challenged to examine our approach to making plans in light of God's will. Drawing from James 4, we're reminded of our limitations as human beings and the temporary nature of our existence. The key lesson is that while planning isn't inherently wrong, we must always seek God's will first and be open to His direction, even when it disrupts our carefully laid plans. The stories of Zacchaeus and Paul serve as vivid examples of how encountering Jesus can completely upend our lives - in the best possible way. As believers, we're called to embrace this divine disruption, recognizing that God's plans for us are far greater than anything we could imagine for ourselves. This message encourages us to hold our plans loosely and to cultivate a heart that says, 'If it's the Lord's will,' reminding us to view our lives through heaven's eyes rather than our limited human perspective.
