I am sure each of us has goals that we want to accomplish. Once we have established what we want to become or where we want to go, we should determine how to make it a reality. What is our plan? What are we doing that will make our goals a reality? No matter the goal a plan needs to be established. How can we accomplish a goal without a plan? If we do not have a plan, we do not have direction.

The same can be applied to our lives as Christians. Each of us should have a plan for how to grow as Christians. What are we doing to make that a reality? While some have an established plan, others struggle in developing a plan. Why is this the case? It could be a lack of direction. It could be a misunderstanding of strengths that could be utilized to serve the Lord. One of the things each of us need to understand is that each of us has plans established for us. Jeremiah 29:11 says, “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.”

We should have peace of mind knowing that God is in control of our life. While we should have this assurance, what are we doing to ensure the goals for our lives as Christians become reality? What is our plan?
