144. My Plans or God's Orchestration ~ Which Is Better?

Welcome to Episode 144 of the Warrior Words podcast!   Are you a planner? Do you like to have every detail accounted for, and basically like to have it your way? Do you ever pray like you're at the Burger King drive-through? Well, as much as we may not like it, God does not answer prayers like Burger King offers to let you have it your way. Through a series of medical challenges, I've discovered (to no one's surprise) that God's orchestrations are better than my plans. And while this particular orchestration is not how I wanted it, or would have planned it myself, I am seeing that, as usual, He is right. So, while this episode was meant to be an update with some practical information, it turned into another reminder - mostly for myself - that His thoughts are above my thoughts, and His ways are higher than my ways (Isaiah 55:8-9). I hope there are some nuggets in here for you as well. Plus, I did still include the practical information.   Donate to the Star of the Sea Guild through our fiscal sponsor! https://raisedonors.com/xaviermissionfund/star-of-the-sea-guild   Armor Up.
