Good Things

DAY 5 OF 20

Are you a Type A or Type B person? Type A people are those who like to follow a plan and system for everything they do. Think . . . people who cannot start driving without the directions. Type B's are more willing to go with the flow. Think . . . people who will start driving, strictly relying on muscle memory (even if they've never been to the current destination). Do you have a step-by-step plan to reach your goals? It's definitely not a bad thing. It can be a mark of someone who is careful about the choices they make.

However, we should never get so caught up with our own steps that we forget to look around and acknowledge that God is the one who leads us. Think of what steps you're currently taking or about to take that you can present to God in prayer. Spending time in prayer can bring awareness to situations we hadn't previously considered. Pray sincerely and ask God to close doors that are not beneficial and open those that are. 

What do you have planned for yourself? Do you think God may have a different direction for you to take?

Good Things

In this 20-day devotional series from Grow Curriculum, we’ll hear more about God's plans for us and the whole world.
