For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:11-13God has a plan for each of us. He has a glorious plan, more than we can ever know or experience on our own. How can we be a part of his plan, carry out his plan, or walk with Him? That is hidden in fourteen words right after this promise.Call on God. Come to God. Pray to God. He listens you. This isn’t rocket science, this is simply faith and trusting God with our lives.Seek and Find God. Finding is the hard part. We are like children with ADD. A spiritual ADD…and we are distracted from God with the lure of the world and its darkness and promises that are quickly broken as we are broken in following them.Stand firm. Renew your mind, daily. Transform your mind. Know that He is Lord. Pray without ceasing. Rejoice always. Give Thanks in all things. These are some of the golden nuggets, and many more, found in His Word. You, Oh God are always on my mind and in my Heart, and just as King David, a man after God’s own heart, wrote:I will praise you in the great assembly.
I will fulfill my vows in the presence of those who worship you.
The poor will eat and be satisfied.
All who seek the Lord will praise him.
Their hearts will rejoice with everlasting joy.
The whole earth will acknowledge the Lord and return to him.
All the families of the nations will bow down before him.
Psalm 22:25-27
