What plans?

October 11, 2013

Life goes to show that when we plan and fret we are only disappointing ourselves.

This past week/month I knew that this weekend was going to be action packed. I'd be in a performance at church, go to Grandpa's 90th birthday, help out at the youth mass, and go on a thirty hour fast with our youth. Throw work in there and I was going to be hopping from one thing to the next.

I had it all mapped out and I was going to sneak up on the events and attack. Well, look how that turned out.

I got sick. I've had to skip work all week. I had to drop out of the skit. And I had to cancel on the fast.

All those plans and worries of planning are pointless now. I laugh at myself because I am constantly reminded that I should just live in the moment and let tomorrow take care of itself. Yet, I think I have to coral my everything into tiny little boxes. OCD to a T.

I advise to let go of your future. Cherish the moment. Live in the now. No one knows what tomorrow holds.

So here I enter into my weekend of whatever God wants it to be. Not even going to try and think about what I have to do or what I am doing. Just going to let Him lead me. No point in trying to lead Him. ;)

Trust and let go.
