We all love to make plans. We plan dinner. We plan holidays. We plan future career paths. We plan our future lives when we get married. Sometimes these plans don’t go where we expect. We burn our dinner, the weather isn’t right for our holiday, we don’t get on with our work mates. Let’s not even get started on things that can change when we get married and life together begins. Things always change and we always have to change our plans. It is how we react to these changes that will direct our lives. When things don’t go to plan, we can get frustrated, stressed and even lose hope.Paul had a plan of visiting Jerusalem for a short time to deliver some donation and give some offerings before continuing on to Rome. He soon found himself under arrest and being dragged before the governor, and the only place this was looking like going was jail. Paul could have reacted in may ways but he decided to continue to trust in the Lord, to trust he was going where he was meant to be. He wasn’t going to let the Jewish leaders rain on his mission to spread the good news. He didn’t run, he didn’t hide, he continued to share the word, even in court that would lead him to the start of 2 years in prison.Ben Randal
