- sad
- hurt

I DID Plan for.....
.....to be young forever.
.....to climb the corporate ladder.
.....to be rich and powerful.
.....to be acclaimed and successful.
.....to conquer the every /any obstacle with the unfailing commitment of a spouse/children.
.....to fall in love - and be loved forever..... for better & worse .....
.....to be happy ...... in stead of having a shattered life in 'most' aspects
Sometimes if you work hard enough, you can get what you want.
But MOST times, what you want & what you get, -are two different things.
We, mortals, plan....
But so does God in the heavens.
Sometimes, it is difficult to understand God's plans especially when His plans are not in consonance with ours.....

...... allows pain so we can be stronger.
...... sends us failure so we can be humble.
...... allows illness so we can take better care of ourselves.

Make plans, but understand that we Live by God's Grace, independent of your self-acclaimed 'Social standing' in Life!
