You have a plan for the rest of your life. God has a plan for the rest of your life. Are they the same?You have expectations for how your life will play out, and you hope those plans will become realities.But what if Godâs plan for your life is far different from what you had in mind? Can you accept that? Will you surrender your goals for Godâs?Kay Warren had a plan. Together with her husband, Rick Warren, author of the megaseller The Purpose Driven Life, she planned that after her kids were grown, sheâd travel the world, teaching and encouraging couples in ministry. It was a good plan. But it wasnât what God had in mind for her.In a startling wake-up call, Kay discovered the shocking realities of the AIDS pandemic in Africa while reading a magazine. âI want to use you!â she heard God say. That began the struggleâfirst to avoid Godâs call and then to surrender herself to God.She cried out to God, âWhy are you bothering me with this? Thereâs nothing I can do about it. Iâm just an ordinary person. What could one person do about such a gigantic problemâ But God had grabbed her attention and wouldnât let go.If youâve ever struggled with knowing and doing Godâs will, this book is for you. With raw honesty, Kay goes straight to the heart of the matter: the bottom line is surrender. Will you trust God? Along the way sheâll introduce you to othersâpeople like youâwho have said yes to God and have made a difference in the world. Using their skills, energy, faith, and a willingness to take risks, they became powerful instruments of change and tools in Godâs hands.Giving in to God isnât easy. Itâs not for cowards. Itâs the boldest, riskiest step youâll ever take. This dangerous surrender can bring both joy and pain, both heartache and ecstasy, but it enables you to know God in a far deeper way than ever before.I had to make a conscious decision. Would I retreat to my comfortable life and to my settled plans? Or would I surrender to Godâs call and let my heart engage with a cause such as AIDS that I was pretty sure would include buckets of pain and sorrow? I felt like I was standing on the edge of a giant precipice; I couldnât go back, and yet the way forward looked like stepping into a void.Kay Warren took that step, choosing to dangerously surrender to God. That decision transformed her life, marriage, and future. She invites you to do the same.Youâll benefit most by discussing this book with others.
