Prayer: Teresa Benedicta of the Cross
Things were in God’s plan which I had not planned at all. I am coming to the living faith and conviction that – from God’s point of view – there is no chance and that the whole of my life, down to every detail, has been mapped out in God’s divine providence and makes complete and perfect sense in God’s all-seeing eyes.

What a good prayer. Thank you. I just wonder whether my life is indeed all mapped out, even though I feel sure that it makes complete sense in God's eyes...
ReplyDeleteIt is a big question, isn't it? If God works through our choices and desires, what does it mean about details in God's plan? God respects our free-decision and there seems to be a shaping of our actions through our relationship with Christ.
