Commit thy works into Jehovah, and thy purposes shall be established. –Proverbs 16:13
It’s too true; every time we try to do things on our own there is a 50/50 chance that we will fail. Even if we succeed the accomplishment wont be as great as it would have been if we had included God.
Make your life easier, pray before you proceed to take on a new task. Once you’ve prayed, take the task on with vigor knowing it will be in the hands of the almighty.
Don’t waste your time and health on the stress of doing things without God; if He wants it to happen it will happen, and if He doesn’t want it to happen there isn’t anything you can do to change that.
Take heart though, even if what you want isn’t what God has planned, what He gives you in exchange will be far more wonderful than anything you could have imagined.

I am a young woman who grew up in British Columbia. In BC was all I ever wanted; I had my poodle (Max) and all my friends, Saturdays at the Vancouver Aquarium and Sunday afternoons at one of my favorite beaches it was paradise. But God had a different plan for my life and my dad's job landed us in Alberta and now where I remain, in small town Souris Manitoba. The transitions from paradise to prairie were difficult and I will admit that now 10 years later I still refer to home as Abbotsford BC. Through this crazy pathway trek across Canada I have had one true constant, God; and though none of it was easy, everything that has happened in my life has formed in me a true lasting friendship with the one I call Immanuel. Because no matter how far from home we are God is with us, and thanks to God I have found an almost completely over looked beauty in Manitoba. If you open your eyes you will see that God has planted wondrous things everywhere you go.

A lesson that we had to learn the hard way. It seems that we are still learning it.
