Make Your Plans In Him

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We try to put our plans in place,

Lay out the path we’ll walk.

But there are plans we cannot make,

Despite all our bold talk.

 

We cannot know what lies ahead,

What waits just out of sight.

We won’t know til we round the bend

What we may have to fight.  

 

We think we have life well in hand,

Until it breaks our heart,

Then all the plans that we have made

Can quickly fall apart.

 

The only one who knows the road

That lies beyond our view

Is He who shaped the road we’ll walk

Before we ever knew.

 

So lay your plans, with His in mind,

And, when you reach the bend,

It won’t matter what you might face,

You’ll face it with a friend.

 

Proverbs 19:21

Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.
