"I'll show up and take care of you as I promised and bring you back home. I know what I'm doing. I have it all planned out—plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for" -Jeremiah 29:11 (The Message).
Sometimes I get fed up trying to make plans for the future. I get even more disappointed when my planning doesn't turn out so well. Other times I worry that becoming a teacher isn't right for me--often making me wonder what I should do with my life. But then verses like Jeremiah 29:11 remind me that God's got it all under control. And that God's going to help me get there. Even if I don't know where "there" is yet.
On a side note: I don't normally read the Message version (my main Bible is NLT) but I thought I'd try it out and I really like how it sounds.
