2O1O Reflections

As I reflect on the year 2O1O I realize that I have learned the most about myself, Tobby, Seth, other people, but most of all i have learned just what amazing love God has gave to each one of us. Usually around the end of the year about this time .....i get disappointed with myself thinking that I've failed another year. But this is the first year in a long time where i am mostly happy with the choices I have made only because making the right choices ultimately gets you a closer relationship with God. The "right" choices and "easy" choices are NEVER the same thing. I feel like I had to die this year and turn everything over to God. It wasn't about what I wanted anymore, or should i say what I thought i wanted. I had to say "God, what do you want?" And with doing that God gave me everything that I needed and wanted.......things that i didn't even know i wanted until he gave them to me. Most of them were not things at all. I think we often forget that God knows us better than we know ourselves. What I thought was making me happy.......was actually doing the opposite.
1 corinthians 1:25 says This foolish plan of God is wiser than the wisest of human plans, and God’s weakness is stronger than the greatest of human strength. Reading this, I wonder why do we ever think that we should go about life planning the things that we want, the people we want to be friends with, the things we want to do?!?! When we all need to ask "God, what are YOUR plans for me?" "what do YOU want me to do today?" "who do YOU want me to talk to today?" "what plans do YOU have for my life?" I feel like i have started doing that this year.....but i still have a long ways to go on this path of learning that my plans are in no way comparable to the plans God has for me and my family. Also Ephesians 2:10 says For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. Now thats awesome to know that he had plans for us before we could even begin to make plans. Lets take his plan and not our own for the year 2O11 and for the future since he did make them first. :)
