“Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established.” (Proverbs 16:3)
We are often anxious about our tomorrow and regret about the decisions that we had taken or the decision that we did not take in our life. Fear overpowers us. We want people around us to accept our actions, our identity, our views and everything revolving around us. In that rat race, we often forget our true selves and identity. Thoughts of our past haunt and traumatizes us and our future make us anxious. In this hub- hub we forget to live in this moment, remember our present is at stake.
Overstressing, overexerting, and overanxiousness will only deteriorate our mental peace and our social interactive skill with our loved ones and peers. World is indeed a beautiful place to live in, venture to different places, try out different cuisines, help out and reach out to the people who are even deprived of basic amenities, our worries seem to be nothing in respect to their hardships.
There is absolutely no reason to fret, ever. Trust in the plans of the almighty, he is the one who will look after you and your plans. He has inscribed your names in his palm, he knows your intentions and your heart’s desire. If something isn’t working in the way you are planning, it is because God has a better plan for you and what God wants to work will work. It is a tremendous blessing to find peace in that truth. Sadly, much energy is wasted worrying.
God will put the right plans at the right time, the ones for your upliftment, into your heart. His plans will become your plans and then he will make those plans succeed. Commit all to Him and live according to his ways, there will be peace, joy, contentment, and abundance.
