Today's Scripture
Isaiah 55:9, NIV
As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Today's Word
Over the years, many things haven't turned out the way I had planned. I had it all figured out. I told God what to do, when to do it, what I needed, whom to use, and how to get me there. I gave Him good information, my very best. The funny thing is that God didn't take my advice. He had His own plan, and it's always been better than my plan. His ways have always been more rewarding, more fulfilling, and bigger than my ways. If God had done what I asked, it would have limited my destiny.
Don't be discouraged when something doesn't work out the way you want. God knows what He's doing. One day when you see what God was up to, you'll thank Him for not answering some prayers. Know that God is in control. As long as you're honoring Him and being your best, at the right time God will get you to where you're supposed to be, and it will be better than you ever imagined.

Father, thank You that You know best when it comes to the things I want and ask You for. Thank You that Your plans are always so much more fulfilling and bigger than my plan. I declare that You are in control, and at the right time You will get me to where You want me. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
