When God Has Another Plan

Well, a bomb dropped on us this week when Becca didn't get accepted to A&M.  I think deep down we all thought, no matter the odds, that she would get accepted. It's been four days now and I keep going over and over in my mind the scene of her coming in from school and falling apart. Jeff and I had thought she would find out when she came in, but a computer check at school had already delivered the bad news. So, where do we go from here? I honestly don't know. I've spouted over and over, "God's will...God's will..." but yeah, yeah, don't talk to me about that right now, my kid just had her dream crushed.

The Lord woke me up with this song this morning. It's one that our choir sang a couple months ago and it was just what I needed to sing throughout today. Yes, I know it's "just college" but she's my baby and I wanted her to have that opportunity if she wanted it. So, for now, we will "walk on and just say yes..."

When God Has Another Plan

Forsaken by his brothers, didn't fit the scene..
Being made a slave, was not what Joseph dreamed,
The coat of many colors was stained with blood and lies
But from this divine appointment, a ruler would arise


When God has another plan - walk on and just say yes
When God has another plan - be assured that He knows best
If all your dreams are shattered, rest in His sufficient grace
We don't have to understand - when God has another plan.

Alone and broken hearted, questions fill your mind
Changes can be hard, but come by God's design,
But if you could see tomorrow, with a view from Heaven's throne,
Every unexpected struggle, has led you closer home.

When God has another plan - walk on and just say yes,
If all your dreams are shattered, rest in His sufficient grace,
We don't have to understand - when God has another plan.
