Our Plans & God's Will

In Romans 1:8-17, the Apostle Paul states that his prior plans to visit Rome have been prevented. As Christians it can be challenging to know God's will for us. We should not be surprised when our plans fail, or when God's plans for us are not crystal clear. In fact, following God's will may include hardships just as Paul's journeys included persecution and eventual martyrdom. Through faith in Jesus we need to keep moving forward in prayer and fellowship, knowing that God is with us.
