Jeremiah 29:11 (NASB): “For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.”

For the many times we feel confused and lost, not knowing what we should do or where we should go, this is good news. It is good news because the King of the universe, who is omniscient, is neither confused or lost. He knew where we would be and what we would doing and feeling before the beginning of time. So not phased by the precarious circumstances we often encounter, He would have us know that His promises are still “yes and amen.” Let us rest today with assurance.

Heavenly Father, help to rest peacefully today in the knowledge that You have plans for our lives. Give us the desire to know Your plans, follow Your plans, and grow comfortable with the timing of Your plans. Amen.
