why do we fight it...

Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the LORD's purpose that prevails.
Proverbs 19:21
why do i fight it the plans that GOD has for me. it is always what is good and prosperous... but yet i question... argue... fight... and get down right ANGRY... it is quite silly. i mean HE is GOD he IS GOING TO PREVAIL... and while the process might be bewildering or down right HARD the end is always EXACTLY AS IT SHOULD BE.... the outcome is more "RIGHT" and more NATURAL than what it was before.
a good friend of mine, Kate told me to just do the next thing... my husband says it is the only way you can do it... because waiting on the LORD/surrendering to HIM is like eating an ELEPHANT... (anna don't worry the ELEPHANT is a metaphor) you must eat it ONE bite at a TIME... there might be a better metaphor but it is not on the tip of my fingers at the moment... however my devotional today paired nicely with my frustration.
JESUS CALLING

you are mine for all time and beyond time, into eternity. NO power can deny you your inheritance in heaven. i want you to realize how utterly secure you are! even if you falter as you journey through life, i will never let go of your hand.
knowing that your future is absolutely assured can FREE you to live abundantly today. i have prepared this day for you with the most tender concern and attention to detail. instead of approaching the day as a blank page that you need to fill up, try living it in a responsive mode: being on the lookout for all that i am doing. this sounds easy, but it requires a deep level of trust, based on the knowledge that MY WAY IS PERFECT.
