I had this verse in my bedroom growing up on this adorable plague. Years later and being aware of my abuse, these words of truth are more precious than ever. They are not only words but the source of my freedom.
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. JEREMIAH 29:11
At times, God's plans for my life have not felt hopeful but God is bigger than those moments of doubt. I have come to realize the times I don't see God working, or I am going through difficult times, God is working for His glory just as much as during the times I see his majestic hand print. God is in all details and nothing takes him by surprise. That you God for truly being Alpha and Omega!
Sweet blessings and praising God's name for giving me leaps of healing - from just a few years ago learning to take baby steps.
