Monday Meditations :: Proverbs 19:21

mmm... it was about 2 months ago that I decided to do Monday Meditations on my blog... and well I didn't follow through.. but I do still want to do it ... and here goes my 2nd attempt :) You can read the 1st one here :)

A verse that I commonly meditate on is ...

Proverbs 19:21 - Many are the plans in the mind of a man,

but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand. (ESV)

I've found this to be true in my life ... Many plans I had for what I would do/ where I would be in life have not turned out the way I planned ...  This is also something that I still struggle with... when things don't go the way I hope... I get upset. But I know that God's plans are bigger and better than I can imagine. In Growth Group and church we've been reading Ephesian - and I'm reminded about God's BIG plan revealed in Jesus to bring all things under him. How Awesome ... and well I guess it brings my plans into a new perspective. So I guess this verse is a challenge and an encouragement in one. :D

 I decided to do a Smashbook page on this verse and so I'm (funnily enough) just in the planning stages of it....

I did decide to sketch up a quick little image to go on the page... I have her in a new section on the website - images "inspired by Scripture" as I would like to do more of these types of pics. She is currently a FREEDIGI so if you would like to use her just go through the checkout process and you will receive the download link at the end :D

Thanks for stopping by!
