What’s Your Story?

Usually when someone asks us about our story we think about where we’re from. What we do for a living. Our family. And that is our story. . .but God is the one writing it—not us. God has a plan for all humanity and for each of us individually. That plan was formed long before we came into existence.

Throughout the Bible, we see examples of God writing the stories of his people from Abraham and Jacob in the Old Testament to Peter and Paul in the New Testament. Even when each thought they knew what God’s story was for them, or when they were at odds with God and tried to take away the pen, God still made their mistakes work according to His plan. 

Psalm 139:16, says, Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.

God has a purpose in mind for each of our lives and He is always working to shape our will to match His perfect plan for our lives. All we have to do is trust Him!

God is still writing your story, quit trying to steal the pen. Trust the author!
