I too struggle with this area, specifically as it relates to security. I often find myself trying to plan around bad things that could happen, when I really should be trusting in Him. The balance is difficult though, and I know I need to do my part as well.

Good for you!! It has been a struggle for me trying come to a proper biblical perspective on goal setting, but with God’s help I have gotten a better handle on it…

I am excited for you about your opportunities!!

Great post – i’ve been thinking about this lately as well.. I’ve found that I haven’t planned for things, and because of that, and because i’m not really seeking out God’s word – that things just don’t happen.

I’ve realized this year that through a combination of reading God’s word, listening to his urgings in my life, and planning for things I felt led to do, that goals can start happening.

Recently I felt led to attend a seminar about sharing the gospel. Within short order God gave me several instances where I could share my faith, culminating with a missions trip this summer. Follow God’s plans, and he will keep you busy!

Great balance of truth. I just discovered your blog and it’s helpful for a series I’m starting called “How to Recession-Proof Your Life.”

@Cory
Good point about being “bailed out by the Spirit” – which thank God that His grace is sufficient and that He is still glad to bail us out when we mess up. But, I just want to be one of those people who God can give a task to and I will run with it, rather than having to be prodded all along the way just to do my part.
