Proverbs 16:3 NIV
Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.

The first time I came across this Bible verse, I was so overwhelmed with joy.
And I had the courage to believe that everything I do on my own understanding will not be successful.
But if it is the Lord's will, I should commit my plans and the things I am about to do to him. It's going to be a success.
Some plans don't go as well as we hope when we make a decision to do something. Sometimes things will not work out for our good, and we may think that God is not with us.
But instead, we didn't commit the plan to the Lord. When we work with the mindset of involving God in everything, he will surely come through for us and establish our plans.
This is the mentality I'm working with now, and it is surely working for me. By myself, it will not work. This is what I'm working with: Any plans I make for myself, I see them as things that will not work. That is why I need to involve God in every one of my plans, seeking him before anything else. So once I seek him genuinely, my mind will be at ease because surely he always establishes my plans, and everything will work out well.
