But, the priest quoted someone and I made a mental note to look this up. What I picked up was..."Pray like everything depends on God and act like everything depends on you". Not verbatim but it has stuck in my head all day. I'll let you know what I find when I look it up.Leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12849505063532105030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686582774155973298.post-31289116331937681712008-08-17T15:05:00.000-05:002008-08-17T15:05:00.000-05:00I think as *Christians* we have the mentality "let...I think as *Christians* we have the mentality "let's pray pray pray" until we get a "sign" or a door opens, etc.<BR/>This is good and a rightful step, but is also crippling.

Cause then you are just praying and praying and not *doing* which is also important.<BR/><BR/>So....I always like to think that "man devises his plans, but the Lord directs His steps." We can plan *and should plan* but also pray over the plan and then *act* in the full faith that God is directing us (as He always is, anyway) knowing that His outcome will prevail in the end.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247035131903329580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686582774155973298.post-78588789306909815302008-08-16T22:02:00.000-05:002008-08-16T22:02:00.000-05:00Hmm...the Scripture that comes to mind is, "Whethe...Hmm...the Scripture that comes to mind is, "Whether you turn to the left or to the right, you will hear a Voice behind you, saying, 'This is the way; walk in it.'"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686582774155973298.post-60425651745252519022008-08-16T21:59:00.000-05:002008-08-16T21:59:00.000-05:00I totally know what you mean.
