I can feel it in my bones.

¹¹ For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

the most comforting verse in the entire bible. yet all this is meaningless if we don't follow along with the rest.

¹² Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. ¹³ You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

Jeremiah 29:11-13

We can't just go on with living our lives on our own terms and expect God to just go with that. We have to seek him and go to him and find out what he wants us to do. He has plans for us but we have to find out those plans and follow those plans in order to receive what he has to give. There is a reason we go through bad times, its because we don't follow Gods plan. Yes, he protects us but still gives us free will to do what we want and there are consequenses to that. There is evil in this world and when we refuse Gods plan we let evil ones in.
