Jesus is Lord

Have you ever heard the expression "God has a great plan for your life"? I believe this to be true but this is often misinterpreted . Trying to fulfill your dreams or what you believe to be God's dreams for you, can impose a burden and disappointment beyond repair.
I believe it is God's perfect will to bless us, His children, with a happy and joyous life. Sometimes we interpret "God's perfect will" to be something that it is not. We may invision a ministry like Billy Graham's or Benny Hinn's when in fact it may be to do something much less glorious and notable. What is notable and truly great in God's eyes is much different than how the majority of the people in the world sees greatness.
God has created us with particular giftings and personalities. He, as the master painter, reserves the right to use our lives, as various colors, to paint the ultimate masterpiece.He has a plan for all of us in His great Kingdom. We must seek Him and find out what that plan is. This is what makes me great-it's doing what He wants me to do! He simply asks for our cooperation (trust and obedience). We then fulfill His will for our lives and this is the GREAT plan. We are His children and we are also ambassadors in this world, representing His kingdom and working for Him in whatever way He sees fit. JESUS IS LORD!
