So many days we get up and start our day, we have things planned out just how we want them. Sometimes we even have the whole week planned. Life doesn't always go that way, most of the time it's something small like Elianna has been upstairs looking for socks for 20 minutes. I go upstairs to find her sitting on her bed putting lipgloss on, no socks in sight. Or, Kalyn and Melissa decide that now is the time for one of those special teenage moments. We don't get out of the house on time or we just have to rearrange our plans. But today a major curveball was thrown.
As I sit here tonight, I am again taken back at how our "plans" for life can change in an instant. Melissa lost her husband today, the man she loved. Her partner whom she would grow old with. A wonderful father to her children. A man who touched the life of anyone he talked to. They had planned to go to the mall today with the kids. This is only the most recent in a number of changed lives, of days that were planned totally different.
I am comforted that with the changes in our plans for our daily lives we don't ever have to worry about a God who changes. He is always here for us, He is always strong for us, He will always be for us what we need Him to be.
Be strong and take heart all you who hope in the Lord. Psalm 31: 24.
