Planning vs. Plans and the Insight of Robert Burns
"But Mousie, thou are no thy-lane, In proving foresight may be vain: The best laid schemes o' Mice an' Men, Gang aft agley, An' lea'e us nought but grief an' pain, For promis'd joy!" Man Proposes – Paul’s plans to visit Jerusalem (vv 21-22) But God Disposes – circumstances and providences that impact plans (vv. 23-41) Application – God and your plans: "Still, thou art blest, compar'd wi' me! The present only toucheth thee: But Och! I backward cast my e'e, On prospects drear! An' forward, tho' I canna see, I guess an' fear!"
