My normal schedule consists of going to school and work, being out of the house from 8-5 everyday. You can say I've gotten used to my schedule since it's been like that for a month now. But today, we don't have school. I'm not sure why they canceled school for today and not yesterday, beings as yesterday was President's day. But hey, I can't complain. No school is pretty awesome.
Since I have a day off, I always want to do something since I feel lazy if I'm doing nothing. So today, I scheduled an orthodontist appointment since it's really the only time I have free. I also even asked this guy I like if he wanted to go out to eat, since we both don't work or have school.
There is a moral to my story, I promise. I'm not just talking about my day for no reason. I know my life isn't that exciting.
Anyways, I had my whole day planned out and everything. Drive myself to the orthodontist, hopefully go out with this guy I've been talking to, work on homework. Easy day, right?
Well, my day hasn't been going as planned. This guy texted me last night saying we can't go out because something came up. Which I'm perfectly fine with. We're both busy individuals and I know life can bring some unexpected things. Now with the orthodontist: I said on my first blog I am 18 and I live with my grandparents. My grandparents worry about everything, so my grandpa wouldn't let me drive to the orthodontist by myself. I know they love me, but I am 18. Not 12. I have to grow up eventually. So we got into a stupid fight that was pointless and now we're both in a sour mood.
Whatever.
As I said earlier, I have a point to this post.
As my grandpa was driving me to the orthodontist, I realized something that we all need to realize. Our days can be ruined, and sometimes they're not going to go as we planned. Even though it can really suck sometimes. Especially if you were looking forward to going out with a really nice guy...
Personally, I believe everyone has a specific plan or "destiny" planned out for them. Yes, God has a plan for everyone. We do have free will to do as we please. But as for this girl, I want what God has planned for me. I am totally lost in what I want to do, where I want to go. I know God knows what's best for me.
Proverbs 3: 5-6 But trust in the Lord with your heart, and lean not onto your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him, and He will guide you.
So, I'm going to trust Him. I don't want to go by my own understandings because I know I can be wrong in my decisions.
Maybe my day didn't go as planned for a reason. Maybe I could have possibly gotten into a car accident if I drove myself. Maybe this boy and I couldn't go out because he's not the right guy for me. I honestly don't know. All I know is, God holds my world and my life in His hands. He has control and I want to let him take me wherever He wants me to go.
So whoever is reading this, I pray that you will also let God take control of your life. Maybe your day didn't go as planned either. Just remember, God has a plan for each and everyone of us. God loves you and wants the right things for you.
God bless!
