Before the sun set last night….

I get to spend far too much time in my car.  Sometimes I listen to tapes or CDs, more often I pray and meditate.  On longer trips in moments of extreme boredom, sometimes I see if I can find a Christian radio station.  I heard a song a few years ago that was new to me. I liked it because the words were meaningful and biblically rooted.  It included a phrase similar to this, “before the sun sets, God has a plan for your tomorrow.”

 When you awakened up this morning, you may not have had much planned for the day.  Or perhaps, your day was already over-filled with obligations and plans.  Regardless, the Christian faces the day with the awareness that God is the only one with a plan that matters.  God has a plan for you today.  God’s plan is consistent with his eternal purpose.  The question of my life and yours today is this: Will our lives fulfill God’s plan for us?
