A quote from Neale Donald Walsch about “your plans in life”
Not everything has to turn out exactly the way you planned in order for you to call it a success. Sometimes all God wants you to do is to “get the ball rolling.” Then, She’ll take it from there. So when things turn out other than the way you wanted them to, don’t be so…
