So today my plan changed :) I was planning on writing about the Holy Spirit...but while I was reading my bible today, the Holy Spirit told me to write about something else.
His plan...which doesn't change.
Today, I am thankful that Jesus being born so that He might die as a sacrifice for our sins, was always part of the plan. The big picture was covered on the cross...and that was always the plan. God didn't just randomly decide that that's what should happen.
He had a plan with Jesus, and he has a plan for those of us who choose to follow Him. I was taken today to a verse in the Old Testament.
"Since ancient times no one has heard, no ear has perceived, no eye has seen any God besides you, who acts on behalf of those who wait for him" Isaiah 64:4.
I am thankful that He knows what He is doing, because most of the time, if I'm honest, I don't. He acted on behalf of us on the cross, and he also cares about our hearts right now. He cares about our fears, and dreams and desires. And as we wait on Him, He will act. We don't have to.
He has. And He will.
Thankful.
