Understanding the Picture

“The steps of a man are established by the LORD...” Psalm 37:23

“The plans of the heart belong to man, but the answer of the tongue is from the LORD.” Proverbs 16:1

“The king's heart is like channels of water in the hand of the LORD; He turns it wherever He wishes.” Proverbs 21:1

If Christmas tells us anything - it says to us that God knows us! The little things we blow off as nothing important are all playing a part in our lives and are used for the glory of God. Everything is appropriate in its time. The God ho has put eternity in our hearts is the same one Who knows every moment and every step.

John Maxwell said, “Your attitude, key to success,” and that reminds us that -
“The wrong decision at the right time equals disaster.
The wrong decision at the right time equals a mistake.
The right decision at the wrong time equals unacceptance.
But, the right decision at the right time equals success.”
- Timing,1983

Nothing ever stays the same. Options today become non-negotiable tomorrow. Decisions are a daily thing, and every decision is important. Mary would say, “When God speaks, don’t miss the moment.” The Bible says, “See the Lord, while He may be found.”

You are not here by accident, but by the sovereign providence of God. The question is - Are you living according to His plan or yours?
