WE HAVE GREATER PLANS

I am so glad that Heavenly Father always has bigger and greater plans than we can see for ourselves. I am so grateful He is patient while we try to be stubborn, little snot-nosed kids and try to do it our way first. 

And then He simply says, "Are you ready now?" 

And we usually, in our own skeptical, resigned, way say "Fine. Okay."

And in His masterful and loving way He shapes and unfolds our life into something more beautiful and breathtaking than our feeble minds ever could imagine.
