Class Devotion I’ve Got Big Plans

I’ve Got Plans James 4:13-15 (NIV) Now listen, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money." [14] Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. [15] Instead, you ought to say, "If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that."

Consider How does that fit with your degree plan? All 8 semesters are pretty much set You must take these courses in this order How might things change during those 4 years? What if you are determined to run your life in your own way on your own time table? How does God respond when you allow Him to direct your path?
