It may not seem that way, especially when we stumble and fall. But we aren’t just accidents of nature that God took pity on. Though it may seem like we’re blindly making our way through this world, the truth is that God is behind us all the way.
Gloria Copeland knows just how hard it is to come to terms with that idea. When she and her husband Kenneth were newlyweds in 1962, they had nothing—no money, no long terms plans, and most importantly, no God. But then Gloria was given birthday card with a simple inscription: Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you. Matthew 6:33. Something inside her shifted into place. She shared her thoughts with Ken, who at the time, was an unbeliever. But soon the power of God began to work in him, as well. For the first time, they began to connect with God's Master Plan for Your Life.
There’s no question that the task of giving over to God—of letting go, and letting God’s rules take over—is no easy task. But in her trademark poised and empowering style, she shows us that living a Godly life is something that’s within reach of every person, no matter of his or her age, race, background, or circumstance. The only thing that matters is the belief—that Jesus is Lord.
God had a plan for Adam and Eve. God had a plan for Abraham. God had a plan for Jesus.
And God has a plan for you.
