James reminded us that we ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that" (cf. James 4:16). Scots poet Robert Burns showed understanding of this truth when in A.D. 1785 he wrote, "The best-laid schemes o' mice an' men gang aft agley." May the LORD be pleased to make your plans pleasing to Him, then bring them to fruition for His glory and your good.
