James 5:12

Above all, my brothers and sisters, do not swear—not by heaven or by earth or by anything else. All you need to say is a simple “Yes” or “No.” Otherwise you will be condemned. - James 5:12

Dear Lord,

You cannot abide people thinking they can control their lives. So, when we swear we will do this or that you are disturbed. You give us breath and you take it away. Without your blessing all of our plans are a house of cards. Help us to learn to live in dependence on you. We know that your plans for our lives will prevail no matter what we decide to do. We will be thankful for what you send our way because it fits your grand plan to reach all people with your good news.

Amen

Pastor Don Patterson

Don't ask God to bless your plans. Ask him to plan your blessings.
