Have you ever caught yourself thinking, "I don't hate my life, but I don't exactly love it either"? This quiet discontent is surprisingly common. While most of us readily express love for family, friends, or possessions, few can honestly say they love their actual lives. Joyce Meyer understands this struggle intimately. Despite teaching God's Word and having countless blessings, she once found herself merely enduring life rather than enjoying it. Through her personal transformation, she discovered something profound: loving your life isn't about having perfect circumstances; it's about embracing what you have with expectation and celebration. We're natural planners, aren't we? Some meticulously map out decades ahead, while others remain flexible with short-term goals. But regardless of your planning style, there's one unavoidable truth: your plan is inherently limited. The first step to loving your life requires a profound shift: submitting your limited plans to God's perfect one. God sees the end from the beginning, and nothing catches Him by surprise. He works all things together for good, orchestrating circumstances beyond what we could imagine. Remember David's journey from shepherd to king? Or Joseph's rise from prisoner to palace official? God's plans consistently exceed human imagination. Many hesitate to embrace God's plan, fearing He'll force them into difficult, joyless service. Nothing could be further from truth! God isn't a hard taskmaster - He won't send you somewhere without first placing that desire in your heart. His plan includes both spiritual fulfillment and daily enjoyment. True peace - the kind that persists through economic downturns, job pressures, and family challenges - comes from trusting God's plan before seeing results.
