2,600 years ago the Babylonians demanded taxes and Israel refused so Nebuchadnezzar conquered and enslaved Israel. Daniel was one of the slaves.
By the rivers of Babylon — there we sat down and wept when we remembered Zion.
Psalms 137:1 CSB
For I know the plans I have for you" — this is the Lord 's declaration — "plans for your well-being, not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.
Jeremiah 29:11 CSB
God wants the best for us. His plans trip us up. We want our own plans to comfort us in knowing what's happening or going to happen. Control of the future.
We make plans for a good day and good results. We think we know what plans God should make for us. Can we hear what God is saying? Even if we are busy?
Do we accept God's plan? He knows the plans he has for us.
