Goals vs. Intentions

I find it useful to think in terms of intentions, rather than goals. Goals are fixed results that allow no room for divine intervention. So often, when I’ve thought I knew where I was going and where I wanted to end up, divine intervention has taken me on a different path. When I haven’t been willing to listen thinking my goals were better than the larger plan, I’ve been gently blocked, sometimes paddled, sometimes whipped, until reluctantly, I’ve pulled back and let go of my goals in order to allow something better to manifest. Not in my way, but in Thy way.
