God makes everything right...despite us!

There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death. For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did; sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh, in order that the requirement of the Laws might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. - Romans 8:1-4

We constantly try to do things in our own will. When you decided what to do first today,  did you ask God if that is what He wanted you to do?  Did you ask if that was the way He wanted you to do it?  You are probably thinking that if you did that, you would never get anything done! Think so? Then try it!  Find out for yourself! 

As for me, everytime I check in with God first, everything works out in the long run...even if it wasn't what I had planned.  Everytime I rush in and fix it myself without checking with God first, it gets pretty messed up.

I am not saying that everything will go the way you had hoped. It won't, but if you ask God to guide you, you will do His will, not yours, and His will is perfect. His will won't always make sense, because it will be God's plan, not yours. You will not be privy to the details until they roll out on front of you. 

God is in control. His plan is perfect. Rest in that knowledge. Trust in Him.

Father, we pray for your guidance in everything as we go through this day. Thank you for your help! In Jesus name I pray.  Amen.
