The Plan

Have you ever felt like you needed twenty more of you to accomplish the plans you had for your life? That’s somehow how I feel at the moment, and I have felt this way before. When I had these feelings earlier, I brushed them off as flights of fancy and embarked on a ‘realistic’ approach to life. Don’t get me wrong, reality has its place…it helps most of us from living for the day at the expense of the morrow. But there has to be more than what we see or are programmed to see. There has to be more to life than this earthly existence. This can’t be IT, for if it were, then we would never be craving for more all the time.

What are your plans for yourself? What do you have in mind? Are some of your plans bigger than you? Do you have ideas that would need a genius mind, a sheikh’s wallet and the earth’s lifespan to accomplish? Good! You are in good company. Jesus began work here with the simple men He selected for Himself and the world hasn’t ceased to change since then. His band of men turned the very nature of history around and history is being rewritten even as we speak. However, he also had some specific goals. Get born, grow up, be baptized, be filled with the Holy Ghost, change everything, die on the cross, resurrect, ascend to heaven….leave the rest of the work to the Spirit-led disciples and us. Nice plan huh? Except for the cross part…..I could live with the rest.

That was His plan, and it works perfectly…..what’s your plan?
