His Plan.

I got lucky, God boldly told me what to do in life. He clearly communicated with me what His PLAN, was for me. Now I know many of you don't experience that kind of clarity. Like I said I was fortunate. Believe it or not,  I know how you feel. Even though God told me what I was going to do in my life, I ignored Him for a long time. It was during those years, I did not know what I was to do, I did not have a well laid out PLAN. 

The interesting thing is that although God has a PLAN for each of us, the reality is that it doesn't really matter what the PLAN is if you don't know what your PURPOSE is. The PLAN is different than the PURPOSE.

I knew for a long time that God's PLAN for me was to be a pastor.  However, if I did not know His PURPOSE for me. The PLAN would be of no importance. 

God's PLAN for Abraham was to be a light to the world. Genesis 12:1-3; 22:18. 

But if Abraham did not understand God's PURPOSE for Him, His PLAN would have been useless. 

There is a PLAN for your but without GOD's PURPOSE, the plan is useless. 

I can be a Pastor, but unless I am fulfilling God's PURPOSE my being a pastor is pointless.

Tomorrow we will find out more about what this PURPOSE is. 

Prayer: God, help me to know your purpose and to understand who you want me to be. Show me your plan for me so that I can fulfill your purpose within me.
