God's plans for you

Jeremiah 29:11-14 NIV

11 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. 12 Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. 14 I will be found by you," declares the LORD, "and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you," declares the LORD, "and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile."

This Scripture is a promise to the nation of Israel (Jewish people) but it is also a promise to us. God has plans to prosper you, to bless you, to give you a hope and a future. But there is a condition “You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.” Ask God to help you come to the place where you are seeking Him with your whole heart. Daily turn your life over to Him.
