It’s easy to rush into our plans without taking the time to stop and reflect. However, the Bible encourages us to consider God in everything we do. Proverbs 16:3 (NCV) says, "Depend on the Lord in whatever you do, and your plans will succeed." This reminds us that when we align our plans with God's will, He guides us towards success in ways we might never have imagined.
Before making decisions, it is essential to pause and seek God’s guidance through prayer and reflection. Sometimes, what seems like the best plan for us might not be what God has in store. Stopping to involve Him allows room for His wisdom and direction to shape our choices.
Taking time to think through our plans with God in mind strengthens our trust in Him and helps us avoid unnecessary mistakes. It’s a simple but powerful habit that brings peace and purpose.
