Reflection
Proverbs 16:9 reminds us that it is good to make plans, dream about the future, and work toward the things we hope to accomplish. But even our best plans depend on God, who gives us the strength and ability to live them out. We may think we know exactly how our lives should unfold, yet God sees the bigger picture. This verse invites us to trust Him with both our goals and the things we cannot control.
