God has a Plan

God has a very specific plan for our lives.  Romans 8:29 confirms that plan, “For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.  Moreover, whom He predestined these He also called, these He also justified and whom He justified, He glorified.”  Does that mean that everyone that God has a plan for their lives is actually living that plan? Unfortunately, it does not.  When God created us, His desire was to have fellowship and relationships.  We have the free will to choose to follow the plan and destiny that God has designed especially for us.  What is destiny?  It is getting to our final destination in the Kingdom and accomplishing all that God had planned for us from the very beginning of time.  That means that we have to make the choice to serve our heavenly Father with all of our hearts and to be obedient to the directions He gives us.  It is Jesus Whom is the author and finisher of our faith.  When we choose to adhere to His plans for us, it makes our job as believers so much easier.  It is God in heaven who has begun this good work in us, and it is He Who will complete it.
