Plan and Let Him Guide

We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps.
Proverbs 16:9 NLT

Most times, we Christians tend to have this feeling that God will plan, work and even provide for us and this most times makes us the laziest set of people alive..

We call it GRACE or some would say, the grace factor and HIDE under it..

Grace has never been an excuse for IDLENESS even LAZINESS..

The above scriptures has told us that there is still that point in your life when you need to make plans, where you need to make propositions and its called HUSTLE..

How will my five years from now be? How will my ten years from now be? what business can i venture into?

By this you engage your mind which opens you up and most times wows you to an extent on what brilliant ideas you have.. Now this is HUSTLE

Yet, you can make the plans but it doesn't end here, you allow God determine your next step.. TRUST!

You don't do the planning and determine your next step.. God does it, this takes us to the part where we trust him with our plans..

Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.
Proverbs 3:6 NLT

Its just like when we were kids, we wanted going to school, great plan! but our parents,with their experience and maybe financial status, determine the kind of school, they provide the fees and all of that.. But we made the plans, but we trust them with our plans..

To me i call this TRUSTING.. I make plans and voice it out or write it out and God decides the next step and this gives me a perfect kind of REST..

With this, hustling doesn't mean struggling, strifing or suffering,where we work and worn..

You can Hustle, Trust and Rest only when you plan and allow him guide you..

Shalom!
