8 Bible Verses about God’s Will & Plan

Life is filled with choices, crossroads, and questions about the future. At times, we wonder: What is God’s will for me? The good news is that God’s plan is not hidden in mystery or meant to confuse us. His will is rooted in His love, and His plans are filled with hope. Scripture gives us assurance that He is guiding our steps and working all things together for good. Here are eight verses to remind you of God’s will and plan for your life.
