God Has a Plan and is in Charge of that Plan

My kids are always trying to tell the others kids what is going to happen during the day. But, they are very young, They don't know what I have planned and have little influence or sway in what actually happens. So asking my 6 year old what we are going to do on any given day isn't a good idea if you want to actually know what we are doing. Now, sometimes she knows. But, the only reason she knows is because I have told her and she has listened and believed that what I said was true and that I had the power to make those things happen. This is just like us with God, except much bigger and more concrete. God doesn't just plan out a day and leave it up for change, He has planned all of eternity! Also, He has the power to carry out that plan. I may make plans for a day, but than something comes up and I change my plans. God has never had to change his plans because of something that just “came up”.  The problem is that we don't always know what God's plan is for us. Well, when my daughter wants to know the plan for the day, what does she do? She asks me about it because I know more than she does. We need to do the same thing. Go to the One who knows more than we do.
