Notes:

Proverbs 16:3

Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and He will establish your plans.

Today's Lessons:

1. Draft your perfect day. Plan ahead, look at your calendar and make a detailed schedule. Checking things off your list is a big encouragement and motivates you to reach your goals.

2. Make personal growth a priority.

3. We can make plans but it's God who shows us what we're supposed to be doing.
