Plans…

November 19th, 2007

There’s a quote that says, “If you want to make God laugh, tell Him your plans.” We can plan so much, but sometimes, our planning just doesn’t coincide with our circumstances.

I planned to be much more diligent about blogging this month, to write a novel(or at least start one) in a month, to work on crocheting and finish up Christmas gifts and making cards before December, and to work more on web and graphic design and make some blog templates and advance my skills. A bit ambitious, but I was going to try. Another quote says, “Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars.” Okay, a bit inaccurate, considering the moon is closer than the stars are, but that’s beside the point. I wanted to make the most of my time by working toward all those goals. I figured even if I didn’t accomplish them, if I at least tried, I would get a lot done and have a rather productive month.

Did I mention that our plans don’t always work out? Mine certainly didn’t. That tendinitis has still been being a pain, quite literally,  and typing irritates it faster than anything else. So I’ve done little typing, and when I have been typing, it’s been to catch up on correspondence or do things I had to get done. Pretty much everything I planned to do needed my hand, which hasn’t been so cooperative. Though I can crochet some, which is nice. That doesn’t bother my hand nearly as much as typing does.

This is the longest thing I’ve typed in some time, and my hand is starting to rebel, so I should probably stop. My hand is slowly improving, I think, but  I still need to rest it a lot.

    That quote is at the beginning of the movie Bella, and considering the events surrounding my viewing of said movie, the point hit home. God sometimes has other plans for our lives. And I’ve decided to look at it like this: if there’s something I really want to do (like live in Chicago, go to a Michael Card concert, or get married) and God isn’t letting me right now, it’s because He has something really important for me to be doing instead. That perspective sort of reinvigorates the everyday life.

    Did you have a nice Thanksgiving?
    To God be all glory,
