God has a plan

Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”   …..19 “For they have not listened to my words,” declares the Lord, “words that I sent them again and again by my servants the prophets. And you exiles have not listened either,” declares the Lord.   

Last night I had a difficult time sleeping.   Which is very rare for me.   I had reoccurring thoughts over the same subject, that I have no control over.  I seem to have such a difficult time trusting God in this.   I say I do, but the next minute I am rehearsing the same thoughts over and over again in my mind.    It’s a lack of faith.   Jeremiah 29:11 kept coming to me along with some other verses as I tossed  and turned.   This morning I decided to read all of Jeremiah 29.  Verse 19 hit me loud too.   I do not listen!!!  That is why I have anxiety about this subject.  In the book of James it says, be not only hearers of the word, be doers of the word!    ( James 1:22-24) “Today if you are feeling anxious about anything, what does the Bible say about your situation?    Be a hearer and a doer of what you find.   God has plans for you! He plans to prosper  you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.  Let’s not  get in His way today by doing our way!!
