Let’s talk about that Bible verse that nearly ruined my life. "Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails." (Proverbs 19:21). Sounds holy, right? Sounds comforting. Bullshit. For years, that verse didn’t comfort me—it strangled me. I became so obsessed with "finding God’s will" that I forgot … Continue reading Breaking Free: The Danger of Waiting on God’s Plan
