My Tangled Plans - Re-Posted

 

My life can seem a tangled mess

Despite the grace I’ve known.
In fact, the biggest thorns grow from
The seeds that I have sown.
I lay my plans, in all my pride,
Thinking I’ll see them through,
With never a thought given to
Stopping to talk with You.

But even though the tangles grow
With such abundant glee,
And I am caught within their grasp
With no escape to see,
I know that Your love is still mine,
You won't abandon me.
I know You'll lead me through the thorns
Until I’m once more free.

Proverbs 19:21
Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.
