The mind of man plans his way, But the LORD directs his steps.

All my plans and ideas and schemes seem to come to nothing. But maybe that is because I have not allowed God to take control of my life. He has plans for me. If I seek Him with all my heart, He will reveal Himself to me. If I call on Him, He will answer me. Life is confusing because we aren't looking to Him, rather we are looking to ourselves for answers. Look to Him and He will direct our path. As Proverbs 16:9 says, "The mind of man plans his way, But the LORD directs his steps." (Also see Jeremiah 29)
