Obituaries are published as submitted God Has A Plan “For I know the plans I have for you,” de clares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11 The Bible always stands true. It’s God’s Word and God cannot lie. No matter how uncertain things look at times, this verse says that God still has a plan. And if it’s God’s plan, it’s a good plan. It’s not a plan to harm us, but to prosper us. A plan for our well being. I have a friend who often says, “I don’t know what the future holds, but I know who holds the future.” If you know Jesus Christ, He holds your future and He has a very good plan.
