Whole Self

Posted on: June 13th, 2010 by Susan No Comments

I recently heard someone say that it’s best to make a decision out of my whole self than out of a canyon of unmet needs.   When we make decisions out of unmet needs, our desperation almost always points us away from God and toward a plan that we’ve devised for ourselves.  I don’t know about you, but my plan B never really works out the way I think it should.  God’s plan A is the plan and it’s one that meets all of those needs floating around in the canyon.
