Read Proverbs 16:9 (https://bit.ly/3432nuq)

Does anyone share in my obsession with planning? Of course, everyone plans, but I mean a full out planner that is color coded so thick that it doesn’t close. It’s full of tabs, appointment cards paper clipped, notes everywhere, crossed off events with new ones written in the margins. The very planner that was supposed to organize you and make life a bit easier ends up making you feel overwhelmed. We’re so foolish to believe we can depend on ourselves and our plans, because life happens. Right? I mean, nothing ever goes as planned. I came across this verse and without it, life would seem, well quite honestly, frustrating. We can plan all we want, we can try to color code what we believe to be our priorities, but it is God who already has our course set. I’m not saying to throw the planner out the window, but I am saying to have faith, follow Him and trust in His plan.
