Plan A?
Well...right now I'm sitting in my classroom at my desk...no..I'm not supposed to be teaching right now, just on my lunch break. There have been a lot of difficult situations to deal with in the past few weeks, but God has been so faithful. Honestly, 2 weeks ago I really started to follow my own plan of how things should go. There have been some financial issues at school and there have just been a lot of doubts for me lately about where I'm at. Yesterday, Pastor talked about life plans. He focused on the story of Moses. I was really intrigued and challenged by his message. I did today's staff devotional time and had planned on talking about God's greatness and reading from the Psalms. On my way to school I felt that God was telling me to speak about what I had heard in yesterday's message. The fact is, we can make excuses and bring up all of our short comings and why something won't work, but God's plan is always better and our plan will always cost more. If situations were perfect and everything was how it should be then really there wouldn't be a need for God. There are reasons why I doubted the place that I am at in life and when I looked at all the excuses I was making for changing where I'm at I realized that they were all things that God would build me in and He would bring what needed to be brought and that He has always provided and always will. While I was talking to Tim it really hit me that no matter what is going on God is in control and will provide what is necessary. It's amazing how much God's plan (Plan A) makes sense when you look at it more how he sees it. He knows why plan B won't work out as well and will cost so much more. Aaron was not part of God's plan, but Moses wouldn't accept plan A...he wanted it to work his way. Aaron may have been able to speak well, but he didn't have the character. Looking at the big picture Aaron and plan B are the reasons that Moses never entered the Promised Land. Want to follow Plan A...or plan B?
