I realised that I have always wondered and
cried when things did not go my way, I would question and even doubt my faith.
My first year at University I did not do well, I passed three subject out of five,
I have failed my driver’s license five times already and many more other
things. I got frustrated because whenever I have to perform, I set my mind into
a task and provide my best efforts.
Only when I came across this verse did
everything began to make sense. The problem that we make, is that we do not
present our plans to God, we plan, we visualise and we get excited about the
outcomes however when things do not turn up the way we desire, only then we
approach God to ask him how come/why.
Praying to God on the day that I am getting
tested for my driver’s license is not including God in my plans
Praying to God on the day of the exam is not
including God on my plans.
Praying and crying to God when the car is
rolling and crashing is not including God on your plans
A pastor that visited our school once told us a
story, he said “ I was travelling with a certain pastor and we were coming back
from a sermon and on the way, the car crashed and started to roll, people were screaming
but he remained still and he was astonished by the other preachers who were
praying and crying and begging for their lives” we asked him why was he not
panicking because it seemed pretty normal for people to pray and beg for their
lives in the moment of an accident, he said “ I did not panick because before I
left my house I had prayed and asked God for guidance on the road and on the
day ahead” we all kept quite because right then we realised how much little
faith we had and how we turn up to God at last moments.
From now on, I am making God the centre of
every plan I have, no matter how big or small.
