Have you ever felt completely lost about your future? Like you're standing at a crossroads, and every path ahead seems unclear? I know I have. In our world of five-year plans and career roadmaps, it can be overwhelming when life doesn't follow the neat script we've written for ourselves.
But there's this incredible promise in Jeremiah 29:11 that changes everything:
"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."
What strikes me most about this verse is that God doesn't just say He has a plan - He tells us the nature of that plan. It's not to harm us, but to give us hope. Not to hold us back, but to help us prosper. When I really think about it, that's far better than any plan I could make for myself.
