Best Laid Plans
Little white fences, even from the time we are young we are taught to make a life in this world, yet the Bible tells us that we are ambassadors, sojourners, visitors just passing through on a mission.
Often we make our plans for this life, and forget that the most important thing is to make preparations for the next, its what we do for the Kingdom we belong too that matters most. A Kingdom that will not fade, will last forever, the very place God is, that is the future I plan and hope for.
The Psalmist reminds us that no amount of wealth or good doing or work we can do can "Redeem" us only God can "Redeem" us and it is a free gift that none should boast but that God would be glorified.
Lord may my plans be for you Kingdom, for the future you laid out before I was born, may I keep my heart true and my direction sure in you. May my feet always find direction in your light and may you lamp keep me in the straight and narrow. In the matchless name of Jesus ~Amen
6 They trust in their wealth
and boast of great riches.
7 Yet they cannot redeem themselves from death
by paying a ransom to God.
8 Redemption does not come so easily,
for no one can ever pay enough
15 But as for me, God will redeem my life.
He will snatch me from the power of the grave. Psalm 49:6,7,15
