Planejamento
O planejamento é sábio, mas deve sempre se submeter à vontade de Deus. A Bíblia ensina que devemos planejar com prudência, mas confiar que Deus dirige nossos passos.
Planejar com sabedoria
Contar nossos dias nos ensina a ter coração sábio. O planejamento prudente é elogiado na Escritura como expressão de bom senso.
12 Thei schulen beere thee in the hondis; leste perauenture thou hirte thi foot at a stoon.
28 For who of you willynge to bilde a toure, whether he first sitte not, and countith the spensis that ben nedeful, if he haue to perfourme?
22 Thouytis ben distried, where no counsel is; but where many counseleris ben, tho ben confermyd.
3 Schewe thi werkys to the Lord; and thi thouytis schulen be dressid.
4 Nyle thou trauele to be maad riche, but sette thou mesure to thi prudence.
Deus dirige os passos
O coração do homem planeja, mas a resposta certa vem do Senhor. Seus caminhos são mais altos que os nossos, e seus planos prevalecem.
9 The herte of a man schal dispose his weie; but it perteyneth to the Lord to dresse hise steppis.
21 Many thouytis ben in the herte of a man; but the wille of the Lord schal dwelle.
8 For why my thouytis ben not youre thouytis, and my weies ben not youre weies, seith the Lord.
9 For as heuenys ben reisid fro erthe, so my weies ben reisid fro youre weies, and my thouytis fro youre thouytis.
29 And this thing yede out of the Lord God of oostis, that he schulde make wondirful councel, and magnefie riytfulnesse.
Confiança no plano de Deus
Os planos do Senhor são de paz e esperança. Ele revela seus segredos aos seus servos e guia com fidelidade cada caminho confiado a Ele.
