Scripture and a Snapshot

Week three of my participation in Katie Lloyd's Scripture and a Snapshot challenge. I'm proud of myself for sticking with this challenge! I love that it encourages me to get into the Bible but, also to hunt down an awesome picture!

I went to a beautiful pond today so my hubby could fish and I walked around with my little one to kill time. I saw these stairs and they looked much cooler in person as they were in the middle of a mossy green trail with trees all around! Beautiful! This verse is comforting to me because it tells me that God is in control so I have nothing to fear. I surrendered my life to the Lord many years ago. I know HE wants the BEST for me; far better than I could ever imagine for myself so though I may occasionally forget this and carry out the plans that I think are best for my life, He is still directing my steps, because I have asked him too. To me that is awesome!

    This is the perfect picture for the scripture. I <3 this. I think at times we all need to be reminded of our steps and the plan God has for each of us.

    I love the stairs! I love the saying, "Man plans and God laughs." Haha!!! I refer to those words when things go differently than I planned to remind me that God knows better than I as to what is best for me!

    I love this - it can be difficult to let go of the idea that we control our lives- but we really don't. It has all been planned out for us- which is sort of comforting when you really think about it.

    What a great picture and this is one of my favorite verses. Sometimes life gets scary, because as hard as I try to control my life nothing seems to turn out as planned. I continue to learn to trust Him more each day. :)
