It is biblical and wonderful to make plans to expand God’s kingdom. The questions we must continually ask, however, are these: Where does this opportunity or plan fit within the larger plan of what God is doing in the world? How do we sense God is inviting us to do this work? Our perspective is limited. His thoughts and ways are far higher and different than ours (Isaiah 55:8 – 9). The only way we can know his plans is to listen carefully to his voice.
