The Plan

I feel better today. I was able to finish the Christmas decorating. I think the tree has been up for 10 days now and its finally done. I did some laundry and played outside with Jackson (my dog.) I think he is going stir crazy because he hasn't had a play buddy for 4 days now. He was getting into everything, which is very uncharacteristic of him, he is usually VERY good.

Have you ever wanted something and wanted it now? I think we all have. I know I have. From there have you ever wanted to plan out the rest of your life and hand it over to God for approval and the "granting of wishes." What a silly thing to think about, but I get to this point ever now and then. I just want to hand God "The Plan" I want to marry a god-fearing man. This is when I will get married. This is when we will have kids. This is where we will live and go to church. These people will be our friends, these people will not. It just goes on and on. I know this is impossible. God would not be God if could have things my way all of the time. Ouch, what a reality check.

There are so many things in life I want, and most of them seem like things that God would be pleased with, but when all is stripped away all that matters is my relationship with Christ. What is the rest worth in the end?
