There is my plan (or agenda), and there is man's plan (or agenda). You
must quickly discern the difference". It was a good lesson for me and
it caused me to have the ultimate confidence in my LORD and GOD!!
Because of that experience I probably will never be the same. Don't even
want to be the same. God is great and greatly to be praised.

Amen sister.
It boils down to two options. Will you lean on the Iron Rod of God's authority or will you lean on the broken reed of Egypt that will surely pierce through your hand.
It boils down to two options. Will you seek to be approved of God caring not how well you are approved of men, while recognizing that seeking only the approval of God that any approval given of men is from the God whom you seek to please? Or will you tacitly seek to be approved of God while seeking to be approved of men? The former will be hard to the flesh which will surely result in disappointments in fragile men but hope and glory in the end, while the latter can result in the same and yet NEVER have the approval and acceptance that one is willing to sell their souls for. Seeking after fickle, fleeting approval in the end will result in the greatest disappointment.
