Plan B

We've all done it, if this doesn't work then I'll do this, we call this making a "Plan B".  I think many of us, definitely myself, even let this thinking intrude in our walk with God.  I heard Plan B best described in a science fiction show my son and I used to watch and it went along the lines of -if Plan B was so good it would be Plan A!  When our Plan A is Almighty God, do we really need a Plan B?  When we make a Plan B aren't we really saying "God, I know you'll take care of this but if you don't then this is what I'll do"?  I tried to do things on my own for a large part of my life and I can say from experience that Plan B sucks!  There is no way I would be where I'm at, even here at all if I had kept doing things my way.  In my life I have decided to make God my Plan A and trust that he knows what is best for me and know that I don't have to do it all, he is with me and watching over me.  Like he says in Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)

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.

Today I rededicate myself to making God and his plan for my life Plan A.
