Plans
Have you ever thought of your plans that was postponed because of the pandemic that occurred?
Thinking about it, makes us feel gloomy. We can't help but to imagine how happy would it be when it will happen.
Imagine all the plans you did. An outing with your friends or family, a date with your special someone, hang-out and chill with your classmates, and other activities.
But this quarantine became a hindrance of what was supposed to be celebrated. It was a barrier for people to gather, to meet and have some fun.
But then maybe, your plans are ruined but the Lord planned a better one.
Because of the lockdown that happened, families are just inside their houses. Nobody is allowed to go out so that the virus won't spread easily. Because of that, many families have more time with each other.
Quarantine maybe a bad one. But hey, give it a try to look on the positive ones. Those families who are both busy with studies and work, they barely talk with each other. So use this quarantine to have bond.
Maximize the time you have. Maybe because of being busy with other things, you are being detached. Maybe the Lord wants us to have more time for Him, to have more time with our family and friends.
Take it easy. Planning everything will not be good at all times. Not everything will go according to your plan. As what was said to Jeremiah 29:11, "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
Hold on to this verse for this is very meaningful. Learn to hold on to what is the plans of the Lord in your life and not your own. It's good to be spontaneous at some times. Learn to have fun without calculating each step, but know your limits.
Sometimes, the Lord will put you in a breaking point. You can't see anything positive but then He will make a way for you. Because He is preparing you for better plans ahead.
