“Lord Willing”

 

"If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that."  I love people who come up to me and tell me what their plans are for the year.  Inside I am laughing at them because they really believe that their plans will be fulfilled by their own doing.  Most of the time these are Christians telling me these things and when they get done telling me I ask them if they had prayed about “their” plan, most say no and then I ask if the Lord had showed them this plan in a dream or if they found this plan in the Word.  Most say no and then I usually tell them good luck with that plan and walk away.  God’s will be done not that of our own will.  I still do it on occasion myself, I will lay out a plan of attack without seeking the guidance of the King and then my plan fails to be what I wanted.  If it is God’s will I will be on vacation in a couple weeks problem is I didn’t seek His guidance and now that I have missed some work “my” plans may have to change.  Lord willing He will fix this and I will get a much needed rest.
