I Did It My Way

Augustine tells of a socialist plan he and his friends conceived that went south as soon as they considered what their wives would think of it in chapter 6, paragraph 14 of his Confessions. His comment on their plans shows the folly of fighting against God's will in our lives.

"...our steps followed the broad and beaten ways of the world; for many thoughts were in our hearts, but "Your counsel stands fast forever." In Your counsel You mocked ours, and prepared Your own plan...."

What plans are you making that more resemble the "ways of the world" than the wisdom of God? Don't know? How well do you know the wisdom of God found in His Word so you can check what kind of plans you have? This is the question I keep asking myself.
