Show us your life - Favorite Bible Verse

This is my first Kelly's Korner "Show us your life" post! yay!

My favorite bible verse is Jeremiah 29:11. It is my life verse and in the recent months, I have repeated it in my head over and over and over.

For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. - Jeremiah 29:11

God didn't take my job away from me to harm me. He knows EXACTLY what He is doing. He has another plan for me, another path for me to take. This verse is perfect for me right now in my life. It speaks mountains of who God is and how much He loves us. Everything that happens to us in our life is for a purpose. He wants me to serve Him somewhere else. And I need to stop worrying and let Him do his thing! :)

What is your favorite bible verse?

Head over to Kellys Korner and join the blog hop!

  2. Love that verse!
    One of my favorite verses is Philippians 4:6-7 "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and petition, with Thanksgiving, present your requests to the Lord and the peace of God which transcends all understand with guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus."
