God's Plan For You Is The Plan You Need

God has a plan for you and His timing is always perfect.

We're all imperfect humans. Imperfect beings who try to control everything and try to time just how we think it should be. We do this because we want to have control, but we don't have control over everything, and that's ok.

It's easy to make our to-do lists and plan things out exactly how we want them. But we just can't do this for everything. God, the one who looked around at everything He had created and thought the world needed one of you too, has your entire life planned out.

He gives us free will to choose, but ultimately every decision we make is still a part of the plan that He has for us. God cares enough about you to know what's in your heart and even the number of hairs on your head.

"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope." - Jeremiah 29:11

Your future is in the hands of the creator of the universe. He isn't going to misguide you, but lead you to opportunities to help you grow. The timing of things may not always seem the best, but there's always a reason behind why it's happening now and not later or even the other way around.

I know there have been times when I've started to question God's timing. But then I have to take a moment and look around and realize how I've gotten to this point. God is perfect and he created you in his image.

God loves you enough to know every little thing about you. Don't you think he cares enough to help guide you to exactly where you need to be?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
