This morning, i opened the Bible reading app on my phone, and the verse of the day was Proverbs 16:9, " the mind of man plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps ." And then i burst out laughing. If you've read my blog (back when i wrote it in more than twice a year), you know that the super hero and i have had lots of plans that haven't exactly come to fruition. I imagine in my mind, a child of God who has prayed things like, "Lord please have your way in my life," and "please make me more like Jesus," in their walk of life, going to God for direction, and the Lord pointing His child down what appears to be a fairly enjoyable path, knowing full well (because God knows everythin...
