Jeremiah 29:11 His Plans For Me

Lately, I have been seriously thinking about my life. Not only the time now, but also the unknown future. In my head I have no idea what is yet to come. I love to dream about what may be, or picture my life when I am married and have children. All these romanticised pictures in my head: A rustic cottage on the east coast, a sweet little porch to sip hot tea in the mornings and watch the flowers grow, and a little family all my own. But I know that life can never be perfect, and sometimes that makes me feel a bit discouraged...
The one thing that always seems to give me hope is the Lord. His love, grace, and tender mercy for all His creation. How can I not be encouraged by His promises for me, or say that He is not enough for me? He knows my thoughts, He knows my dreams, He has many adventures, obstacles, and clear pathways for me to follow and learn from. I have no need to worry with God in control. :)
Even though I am only a teenager, I have come to understand just how fast time flies by. It may seem silly for me to think about these things. But I don't think it is at all. All I can do is wait patiently for the Lord and follow His leading in my life.
He has wonderful plans for me, and also for those who put their TRUST in Him.
Jeremiah 29:11
