I’d Rather Be Flying

"Many are the plans in a person's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails."Proverbs 19:21

You have no doubt seen bumper stickers that say things like my title today. It’s a way to sort of say I am bored and this is what I would rather do right now. 

For me it indeed is flying not as pilot but as a passenger. I just love going places. Is there something you would like to be doing right now? Today’s verse indicates we can have all sorts of things we want to do but it is purpose of God that prevails. Further Philippians 4:12 states "I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want" . 

Pretty straightforward wouldn’t you say? I was thinking maybe it is because of all our stuff that we get confused and bored and I wonder if pioneers or cowboys got that way or they were too busy surviving. So friend be thankful for today and live in the moment. 

PRAYER: I need you Lord and I need peace to stay grounded and to focus on above. In Jesus’ name.Amen.
