A magnificent plan...

Father, your creation declares your greatness and lovingkindness, encouraging statements of pure truth in our daily walk... We just cannot let ourselves succumb to comparing ourselves to others. Why? Because while doing so, we can't be grateful for who you have created us to be. For while we're comparing ourselves to others we can't help but to cut our own selves down, not quite measuring up to whom we think we should be. Seriously? We're really gonna question whom you've created us to become in this life? You have a plan for each of us, a path of excellence that is custom made and priceless in every way imaginable. An oft quoted verse for very good reason, "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." (Jeremiah 29:11) Let's not spoil the perfect plan by trying to be somebody we're not, somebody we were never intended to be, but to focus on your magnificent plan for each of our lives as fulfilled by Jesus and our obedience to walking in His footsteps… Thank you, Jesus, for showing us that you are the way, the truth, and the life; THE answer for those committed to seeking the truth in all things!
