Ep.141 I Thought I Had a Plan—God Had a Better One: My Summer Job Testimony

***DISCLAIMER*** Please note there is a brief audio glitch around the 4:30 mark, which caused a portion of the story to be cut off. I apologize for the inconvenience and am actively working to resolve this issue, as it has occurred in a few previous episodes as well. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

If you’ve ever felt the pressure to figure things out on your own—especially when finances are tight or your plans aren’t going as expected—this episode is for you. In today’s story time testimony, you’ll discover powerful lessons about what happens when you stop striving and start surrendering your plans to God.

You’ll learn:

• How to recognize when you're forcing a decision versus being led by God
• Why trusting God in all areas (not just the easy ones) leads to peace
• What to do when you've made a decision out of fear or flesh
• How God's mercy shows up even after disobedience
• Practical ways to discern if an opportunity is from Him

By the end of this episode, you'll feel encouraged to invite God into your decision-making process, trust His timing, and find rest in knowing that His plans are always for your good—even when they don’t make immediate sense.

Prayer of Salvation

If you’re ready to invite Jesus into your heart and begin a new life in Him, please pray this prayer with me:

"Dear God, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I admit that I am a sinner and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son, and that He died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior. Thank You for loving me and giving me eternal life. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen."
