We are to submit to God and His plans for our life.  As we do, we will experience the Father’s pleasure as Jesus did.

I have found out in life that our plans are not always God’s plans.  We will make our plans for our life and we have a choice to either follow those plans or allow God to direct our steps.  If we allow God to direct our steps, we will find that the way He takes us is not the way that we would have gone. 

We have the tendency to take the easy and the comfortable way that will cause us less pain.  God’s way takes us into and through difficulty.  As we allow Him to direct our steps, we will learn to trust Him totally with our life and everything that we have.  Our rewards on this earth may not be much, but we will have rewards waiting for us in heaven. 

Beloved, always remember that rewards on earth are temporary.  Rewards in heaven are eternal.

Know that you are loved,
