His Plans Are Better
by Chris Gaglione / Women’s Ministry Assistant
“But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.”
These past few months I have been journeying through a season in my life. I planned every part of this new adventure and I felt that “I had all the pieces in place.”
Not one part of that plan happened, and instead God lead me down an entirely different path. Job change, financial constraint, assessing my needs and my wants (It is amazing how little we actually need to live). All of these changes came all at once and I was left questioning every aspect of my life including my faith. Not knowing if you would be able to find a job, or pay your rent… it left me completely helpless. But the amazing thing is that in those moments, that’s when we realize we’ve been doing it all wrong.
See, I’ve learned through this season (as I currently still walk through it) that Christ is enough. His peace, His grace… He has a plan, and that plan may be to walk through a season of trials and testing, but I can have joy because I know His plan is way better than mine will ever be.
