“Woe to the obstinate children,” declares the Lord, “to those who carry out plans that are not mine.”
Whose plans are you carrying out today?
1. My own plans.
2. The plans of my political party.
3. My keep-up-with-the-Joneses plan.
4. The plans that the people I admire tell me to carry out.
5. God’s plans.
The questions to ask yourself at every fork in the road are these.
1. Where is God in this?
2. Is this something Jesus would want me to do?
3. What does the Bible have to say about it?
4. Is what I am following the truth of God or fake news?
5. Is what I’m about to do exhibiting God’s love for my neighbor?
Do you want to be a child of the world or a child of God? That’s really the underlying question to all you do.
