His Plan For Me
Rowland Victor Bingham
A Flame of Fire p. 30
No life that is, is a life unplanned
From birth to death, unbridged, unspanned
By purpose wise, counsel true-
Haphazard chance, and unthought thought!
*
Behind the scenes where we cannot see
A Hand Divine works the things that be,
And brings to my path the scheme devised
By the Maker of earth, Who built the skies.
But He leaves me to choose the life He plans
Or to walk the way of self's demands-
To build on the Rock or the shifting sands.
*
But the life from Him is the life for me;
For the path He plans the best must be
And every step will delightful prove
When all the way is planned by love.

"No life that is, is a life unplanned." This is so true! All too often today, there is a vage fuzzy feeling that one does not live life but rather experiences it.
Thanks for commenting. Excellent point!! Indeed, we aren't here just to "experience", but to do what has been planned for us to do.
