Shake It UpSample

Do you have the perfect holiday planned? In your mind, it’s all about sleeping in, hot chocolate, time off from school, and cool presents. While that all sounds good, in reality, we all know things don’t always go the way we planned! Mary’s life is the perfect example of that. She didn’t plan to be pregnant with the Savior of the world, nor did she plan to give birth to Him in a barn. How her life unfolded that first Christmas probably wasn’t her perfect plan, but instead of giving up or getting frustrated when plans changed, she chose to trust in God’s perfect plan for her life. And we can do the same!
This week, talk to someone older and wiser in your life and ask them how they trust God’s plan for their lives.
