GOD first...Heavenly Father, many of us have priorities in things we try to accomplish. Lots of times those priorities get altered because of incidents that come into our lives. Help us to realize that when things don't go our way, we know that we are being tested or plans for us are altered because most of the time You are in control and things we want aren't in the plans You have for us. Lord, Help us to put our trust in things to come as we pray in the name of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen. 02/26/2025 03:55 PM
