God’s Plan

I definitely like to be organized, so I make a list of tasks to accomplish. Of course, I am a “check-off the list” kind of person and feel good when I have finished the list!

Recently, my devotional readings have centered on being in tune with God’s plan and His timing.

The Greek words for time: Chronos and Kairos help us understand our time.

This is Chronos time: tasks — digging a hole and digging ourselves out. Chronos time is the time of our own agendas … making our to-do lists and setting our minds on doing them with no interruptions.

Kairos is about rhythm — about God's time, God's timing, God's timetable. The gentle rolling hills of God's time. God's time — a rhythm of His setting. It is God's rhythm of life. God's agenda.

The devotion, God’s Plan for One Ordinary Woman, reminds us of following God’s plan that leads to a full life.
