Many are the plans in a person’s heart,
but it is the LORD’s purpose that prevails.—Proverbs 19:21 (NIV)
Sovereign LORD,
Help me to lift up my plans before You—with my palms wide open—as I submit my will to Your will and my life to Your purpose.
You know every plan of my
heart, before it is ever formed in my thoughts.
You know when I make my
plans in perfect concert with Your will for me.
You know when I make my
plans without first consulting You at
all.
You know when I make my
plans despite what I have heard from
You.
You know when I make my
plans in foolishness and selfishness.
Yet despite all my plans,
it is Your purpose that prevails.
So mold my plans to accomplish
Your purposes, as I believe You to do great things in my life.
And help me to remember
that Your plans are always for my best—a reflection of Your perfect and unfailing
love for me.
Help me to lift up my plans before You—with my palms wide open—as I submit my will to Your will and my life to Your purpose.
In the name of Jesus,
Amen.
