“Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.” Psalm 119:105
“”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.” Jeremiah 29:11
These few verses have been going on in my head a lot lately. Sometimes I think I’m not accomplishing enough for my age. I worry that I’m not good enough or that I’ve missed my moment. Lately, since I got off the ship, these thoughts have plagued me a lot. I was reminded of Psalm 119 at one point because I should stop worrying about my past, what mistakes I’ve made, how I may or may not have made the wrong turn. I should also stop worrying about the future, whether I will ever truly contribute to this world. Whether God really does have the right guy out there for me (Yes, so help me, I’m like every other single girl out there whose clock starts ticking. It’s annoying and I’m trying to ignore it with some difficulty).
God has plans for me. He has ideas in my head and simple mess ups are not going to mess him up. Even when we mess up big, God will still make it into something amazing. He never stops working for us and for the world.
We aren’t alone.
Now to remember that.
