' If You Want To Make God Laugh, Tell Him Your Plans'

If you are remotely close to me, you would know that the past few months have been filled with thoughts of what I want to do after I graduate from uni. There are so many things I want to do and to learn that it's ridiculously difficult for me to decide on a path (how I got to law school is a testimony of that). Having said that, by God's grace, opportunities have opened up to me and I have been reassured of His promise over my life time and time again.

Despite turning down interviews because I felt so inadequately prepared for it that it rendered them pointless, they insisted on an interview and somehow, I got in. From that point, there has just been nothing but constant reassurances from God. 

I tell God every night what I want out of my life, what my future should be like and most of the time, I picture Him laughing at them. Not because they are far fetched or ridiculous, but because He knows that His plans for me are so much better and greater than I could ever imagine. I am glad to worship a God who loves me unconditionally and who is so invested in my life. 



I've been listening to this song 'Love Outran Me' by WorshipMob. The lyrics of the song have particularly resonated with me- He has done so much for me and it goes to show that He is all I need. I hope that as you listen to it, you will be touched by it too. Till next time! 

To be the greatest, You say, be the least
 You're living water, You say, drink for free  We ask for purpose, You say, come follow me  We hope for mercy, You say, here's all you need
To truly live, You say that I must drown Where life was lost, You say there I was found We shout for grace, You say Your Kingdom comes  We take one step, You say the Father runs! Chorus:  You reached through my darkness to pull me in 
 You stood in my place and became my sin  To these dead bones, You say, Arise! Arise!  When I couldn't do it, You crossed the distance  Your love pushed harder than my resistance   I was a slave, You said, Be free! Verse: I chose my shackles, You spoke liberty  I crucified You, You chose to pardon me  When shame is calling, You tell me I'm your son  Death tried to hold You, You said, No, I'm not done!
