Father, You had a plan when You punished Israel and sent them into exile. And when You brought judgment on the remnant. You had a plan for bringing Your people back to the land and giving them a new heart, a new spirit and a better salvation.
I believe You have a plan for me and my life as well.
Like Your people before me, it may not be what I expect. But I completely trust You.
You may not give me visions like Ezekiel. You may not exile me from my home. Or use another nation to exact my liberation. But I know that whatever Your plan – it is one that will be new and unique, designed perfectly for the gifts and talents You’ve placed in me.
Father, I trust that You will show me what I need to know, exactly when I need to know it. Open my eyes and ears so I do not miss anything You have for me.
Lord, my own personality and desires sometimes lead me in a direction that may or may not be Yours. Help me let go of what I think I should be doing for You to embrace what You show me.
Make me bold enough to act on what You lead me to. Give me courage to persevere in the way You are showing me.
Help me be satisfied with Your plan for me. And seek only You. Amen
