11For 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. 12 Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. JER 29:11-13
It raises a question, am going back to my OLD WAYS? Sometimes I wonder how easily I revert to my comfort zone. I was obvious that God has brought me out of my old comfort zone, and blessed me with a new job, a new car, possibly a new house by end of this year, and another "possibility" which I am still hoping and seeking Him about...
For the JOB - I had to LET GO of my previous job, without another job offer in the writing...
For the CAR - I had to LET GO of my previous car (obviously), but it was mainly due to the blessing of getting a better job...
For the HOUSE - I had to LET GO of my comfort zone, and really work with the reno plans with my dad...
For the "possibility" - I had to LET GO of my stronghold...
I am still not sure what is God's plan for me, or when would he bring me through suffering and trials, but I sure know this, you have to LET GO and LET GOD do His work. I know that these blessing are for my personal benefit, and yet I hope and pray that I know of His will, so that His glory might be shown to those around me...
11 In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will, 12 in order that we, who were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory. EPH 1:11-12
As 2011, starts, I pray that I will walk in His ways, to live a life worthy of the one that He has given me - a true life of worship.
MMX - So Long... MMXI - Bring It On!
