I woke up yesterday to a whisper. It said "I know the plans I have for you." It ran through my head, over and over. As I brushed my teeth, the whole verse from Jeremiah ran through my head, as if God was audibly speaking it to me. "Plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
It kept repeating, enough that I KNEW I hadn't just read it somewhere that morning (like when you look at your facewash bottle, and for the rest of the morning you're singing "salicyclic acid" to the tune of Mary Had a Little Lamb).
I didn't even have to go through my list of hates, worries, doubts, or frustrations. I knew it didn't matter. Because if I really am listening to Him as I say I do, and really desiring to know where God is moving and where He's working, this is all I need to know... God has plans, and they are to give me HOPE and a FUTURE... even if my life isn't perfect. My mom reminded me of that a few weeks ago. (wise lady)
But I think it took God to really step in and speak to me in the quiet of the morning.

This morning, I woke up with another verse in my head, but it didn't completely stick... I perhaps was a bit too distracted by the delicious Cranberry Walnut Bran Muffins I made! Once I remember, I'll get back on here and continue.
