How to Respond Well When Plans Change
We all have stories about when plans change due to circumstances beyond our control. Everyone responds differently. We can either resist or we can rest.

When we find ourselves in a difficult place, let’s neither fear nor lose hope. If God leads us to an impossible situation, then we are where He wants us to be.
We can’t begin to understand His purposes for our pain, but we can rest assured that He is doing something good in His eternal plan.
Praising God shifts our focus from our fears and failures to the character of the One who never disappoints or abandons us. And joy is born.
Life with its uncertainties can feel scary at times, but I hang onto hope by focusing on God’s promises, His faithfulness, and His sovereignty.
God is right in everything He does. He’s right when He leads us down those sunlit paths, and He’s no less right when those paths lead into the dark places.
Times like this test our faith. Here are three truths to remember even if God seems silent or doesn’t rush to our rescue as we wish He would when life hurts.
Whatever Your situation, know that God’s quietly at work behind-the-scenes. When the time is right for His grand purpose to be fulfilled, He will take action.
When circumstances deviate from the path I’d choose, I find consolation in three little words: “God’s got this.” He’s in control of every detail of our lives,
When the unexpected comes – and it will -remember that God knew every detail about it before you were even born. It was no surprise to Him.
Sometimes God’s purposes overrule our plans. That happened to me this weekend in a most unexpected way.
I don’t understand God’s methods sometimes. They leave me scratching my head. And yet, I need to trust that He is in control, and He’s a lot smarter than I am.
Rather than stress about the changed plans, I’ll embrace them as an opportunity to enjoy the unexpected, to count my blessings, and to rest in God’s sovereignty
God will work out His plans
When we’re walking in right relationship with the living God, we can rest assured that everything’s under control – His control.
