Proverbs 16:1-9 English Standard Version (ESV)
1 The plans of the heart belong to man,
but the answer of the tongue is from the Lord.
2 All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes,
but the Lord weighs the spirit.
3 Commit your work to the Lord,
and your plans will be established.
4 The Lord has made everything for its purpose,
even the wicked for the day of trouble.
5 Everyone who is arrogant in heart is an abomination to the Lord;
be assured, he will not go unpunished.
6 By steadfast love and faithfulness iniquity is atoned for,
and by the fear of the Lord one turns away from evil.
7 When a man's ways please the Lord,
he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.
8 Better is a little with righteousness
than great revenues with injustice.
9 The heart of man plans his way,
but the Lord establishes his steps.
DO NOT SETTLE ~
You deserve the best!
So many people are looking for peace in their lives. God can plan the way, but your free will can get in the way of it. Thinking that you are making right choices but down deep inside, something is missing in life. We don't all want the same things, but most of us want a real relationship with someone. The someone who loves God and wants the same things you do. However, there comes a time with reality becomes real. Questions begin and the big wonder if this is the right person for me. When you settle in life, you will miss out on many things. You miss out on the little things that later in life, would be some of the greatest moments.
I missed out on things in life and this weighs on my heart. I had it all at one point of life, but what I was missing was the peace of God. I lived in sorrows of yesterdays and kept going around the same mountain of why of things. Keep in mind, that life was still going on around me, but I missed out on things. Connecting with others is very important and seeing yourself strong is also important. I am much stronger than I realize at times, but the enemy of my soul wants to destroy my vision of who I am today. The same goes for you as well. The devil is not your friend and the negative thoughts are meant to keep you down. There is freedom in words, thoughts and actions.
Life should be filled with a peaceful heart because circumstances will happen in all of our lives. A time for all things according to God. Give yourself a break and trust God with all your heart. When you ask God, then trust him. Watch God do some amazing things in your life. Look for the little things in life and see the blessings you do have today.
My prayers continue for you, your family and friends.
