You’ve probably heard the common phrase said by many, many christians: God has a plan. Weather it’s for a single person or a group of people he does always have a plan. The idea of a God who has everything all planned out already and who knows everything basically confuses a lot of people, it confuses me. Especially when you at that time in your life when your just like “how can this be part of your plan for me God, this sucks!”, we don’t know or understand now but it will all hopefully make sense later. For now we just have to trust him.

We know that God has a plan and that he knows what he is doing but most people don’t know how. The answer is more simple than you would think in my opinion. The main way God accomplishes his plans on earth is by using the church. The church is a family of christians with the same belief that is belief in God. God calls his family to spread his word and to help him accomplish his plan on earth, whatever it may be.

“Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.” -Ephesians 4:15

God is working through the life of average people everyday here on earth. If we keep speaking the truth to everyone around us and speaking it with love then one day God will accomplish plan and we can see what happens next. It sounds crazy, but I have a faith that it will happen someday. Maybe i’ll be long dead by then but at least I can live knowing that there is a purpose for everything and God not only has a plan for my life but everyone else’s too and the whole world.
