ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COT: read Jeremiah 29:11 and shared that birthdays are a good time to reflect on what’s been accomplished and what you want to still do. Also discussed that we tend to overestimate what we can accomplish is a short time and greatly underestimate what can be accomplished longer. So please look at any hardship through the lens of the last several years vs minutes, hours, or days. It will help you recognize that there’s a process happening and right now you might just be at a hard point.

COT:
In a world full of randomness people overestimate their ability to predict events. Just when we think we have it figured out, something unexpected happens. How we handle ourselves in these moments is critical. You can either let it defeat you, or embrace that it’s God’s plan for you. Choosing God’s path will positively shape your character.

Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
