Plans

June 7, 2010 by Guest Author 6 Comments

Life seems so hard to put into place,

Building a future, running the race,

I look at my life, all that I planned,

And wonder how things could get so out of hand.

So many “constants” have drastically changed,

The future uncertain, my thoughts rearranged.

So I find myself down on my knees to pray,

Asking God, “Why is life going this way?

I thought my future was written in stone!

Why didn’t You help me? Am I all alone?”

Then God smiled down on my worrying tears,

And in a few words dispelled every fear.

“Trust Me, dear child of Mine, I can see

All that you are, and all you will be.

I know all your dreams, but here from My view,

I see that My plans will be better for you.”

What a thought, that the One who is holding the key

To all heaven and earth, has a plan for me!

So I’ll read His Word, and continue to pray,

Let go and let God take control every day.

He knows the best, so I’ll just wait and see

What beautiful plans He has for me.

Welcome to Come Fill Your Cup!

CFYC About Image Welcome! We are so glad you stopped by. Come Fill Your Cup is a group of Christian ladies dedicated to equipping women for study and service. We know you are busy and that life’s hectic pace pulls you in so many directions, but you can’t truly be the woman God desires unless you take time to fill your own cup…not with spa days (though we love a good spa!) or the latest novel…but with God’s Holy Word. We want to help you with that! Our goal is to reach you in the midst of your busy day and give you encouragement, education, and fellowship as you strive to live the life God has laid before you. Our prayer is that we can help fill your cup so that you, in turn, can overflow to all those around you. So, as we like to say…come fill your cup, and let it overflow!
