Aren't those words so challenging for us to understand but at the same time comforting?
As I've lived life the last 21 years more than ever I am glad my God has a plan for me to go after. It's so reassuring!
I'm focused right now on finishing my last two semesters of my Bachelor's Degree. It's crazy to think that. But very exciting all at once. See I was trying to figure out where to go after this. I was dating a guy for 3 months but then figured out that was not what God wanted me in. It was funny all at once God just said I have more for you to do. He also said to me I have called you, you are set apart, and your man will be the same and love me as much as you do. So needless to say I broke up with my boyfriend. Crazy, but so good. I feel as if I have so much more to accomplish, and I'm only 21 years old, I have a Masters Degree to get, people to meet, places to go, adventures. Also God told me don't settle for less, I have something great, for in you I have many things to accomplish and your not going to be with just anyone, it's going to be something special that you would never even think of.
So ladies, gentlemen, don't settle. Always give everything up to God. Know that because it was not in God's will for me to be with that man, I am fine now, God is blessing me, and I have many more things to do. God has a purpose in store for you, so pursue it, don't let a little interest get in the way, don't let it distract you from greater things God has in store.
Now I have been looking up jobs at the Salvation Army, and am about to start applying for Graduate Schools. My heart is with God and because of that my confidence was not in another human being. Love is something great that I share with God and am glad. Love is powerful, sweet, and great. But love is something pure, holy, treasured, and incredible. God is a pretty special person to share that with, so whoever you are going to share that with down the road, they are going to be pretty special, just saying.
But God knows what He has in mind for you, and even if you fall off track He will get you back. He has thought of your name, your life, your family, your future as a husband or wife, and what your ministry is. So follow His call, and know that if you keep in tune, His plan is always surprising, exciting, filled with joy, love, and PEACE.
I have peace when I think of God's plan for me. Knowing that there is this huge canvas with me walking down a path and having things on the side to distract me but things coming up on the straight and narrow that make God jump as He sees me walk into them. God delights in you following the call on your life. He knows you are doing your part in the grand plan. So know you mean so much to Him.
God's plan is great, strive for nothing less, and if you are, you know it, and you know you need to cut off those things holding you back.
God made you unique and with a purpose that no one else possesses. Treasure that and delight in the Creator that made you with intricacy.
Keep running after God's plan, don't settle, don't stop, go go go. Finish that race, strip off all the hindrances. Know that God has something in store for everyone, and that if you do so, God will delight in you and give you the desires of your hearts :)
