It’s natural to make plans and build dreams for the future—sometimes down to the smallest details. But this devotional reminds us that God often reshapes our desires in unexpected ways, not to disrupt us, but to lead us into something better than we would have chosen on our own. The author shares a personal story of feeling settled and satisfied with “the plan,” only to sense a growing restlessness and lack of purpose. That discomfort became an invitation: not to work harder or force a new direction, but to draw closer to God.
