Today....

"What are you doing today?"

"I don't know yet. I'll see how it goes."

That's a pretty common interchange. How many times have you ever been asked that?  How did you respond?  Are you one of those people who knows exactly what you will be doing every day? Do you grab your planner or Blackberry and check what your Outlook calendar says you have on tap? Or do you simply 'go with the flow' and let the day unfold and surprise you?

I'm somewhere in the middle.

I usually have a pretty good idea of my schedule during the work week but on the weekends, unless there is some special event planned, I don't know what I might wind up doing. It just depends on how I feel, the weather, who happens to call and asks me to do something... you just never know.

Ever feel that way about God?   You just never know what He's up to... right?
Hmmm.....that doesn't spark a whole lot of confidence does it?

I'm so glad that the Lord has given us a way to know EXACTLY what He's up to. He's given us His day planner that goes all the way back to Creation. I can flip through and discover not only what He did back then but gain insight on what He's doing today.

Isn't that amazing?!

What's even more exciting is God doesn't have a problem showing me His schedule. He WANTS me to know what He's doing.  Jesus said that we're His friends, not servants. He said you may not tell the servant everything but you certainly let your friends in on what's going on.

In the ever changing world we live in, having access to the mind of God and what's He's doing gives me a peace and confidence that I can't get from watching the news. A lot of you say that's why you DON'T watch the news any longer. No good news.  But here's some....

Today is the first day of the rest of your life!

Sync up your life with God's Planner (His Word the Bible) and get a jump start on your day.

The best is yet to come!
