However, I will be starting this first one off with the most important reason of why I love Kansas.

Why I love Kansas reason #1

-

-

To start with I would like to share a few verses that I dearly love.

-

-

Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails. ~Psalm 19:21

-

-

A man's steps are directed by the Lord, How then can anyone understand His own way? ~Psalm 20:24

-

-

But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever, the purpose 0f his heart throught all generations. ~Psalm 33:11

-

-

-

These three verses mean a whole lot to me, for they point out that God is in control and HE has PLANS for US! How amazing is that?! It also points out that we may have plans... but it's going to be God's plan that come to pass and that succeed and we might not even understand it at all!

-

Next, I am reminded of God's deep and powerful love.

-

-

Your love O Lord reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies. Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice like the great deep. O Lord, you preserve both man and beast. How priceless is your unfailing love! ~Psalm 36:5-7

This is an awesome reminder that God loves us, and that His love is so vast that we can't even begin to understand it. We catch but a glimpse of His mighty love for us.

Alright, with all that in mind. I will share a secret with you. I did not want to move to Kansas last year. I had so many other plans. It took me a while to realize that God had different plans. He was so gracious in walking me along and clearly showing me that KANSAS is where He wanted to send my family. Therefore since I know that HE has plans for me and that He LOVES me so much I decided that I had to trust that His plans were best for me.
