Happy Monday!
The last couple of weeks have reminded me about today’s word-of-the-week…
AGENDA
I can’t seem to figure out how to quit trying to figure out God’s agenda.
I keep telling myself I’m not responsible for the results. I see all sorts of evidence that my plans rarely end up being God’s plans. I absolutely believe I’m better off when I prepare more and plan less.
And still…
Every time I begin a new project I feel this sense that it’s not developing at the right speed or in quite the correct direction. I know there’s some delicate balance between doing my best to make it work and trusting God for how it works, and I never quite seem to find that balance point.
So we’ve jumped into planning U COUNT Front Range Tour 2013, and I’ve got my agenda. I want all twenty slots filled immediately so I can know exactly what details need to be addressed.
And God’s got His agenda.
Perhaps He’s got someone in mind who needs to do this ride but lacks confidence. Maybe He’s using this time to help them face their fear.
Perhaps some folks really want to join the team and are praying about it before committing.
Perhaps He’s waiting for you to sign up, or to encourage that friend who might need just this sort of life-changing experience.
I don’t know God’s agenda, but I’m pretty sure it’s not about me!
I wonder if I’ll ever figure that out.
Have a great week.
