God is laughing at me and my family. They say the quickest way to make God laugh at you is to say, “I have a plan.” I believe that this is very true. Except, God’s laughter is not a mocking or jeering laughter. It is the warm inviting laughter of a father who is watching his beloved child discover, for the first time, the delight of eating ice cream with sprinkles on a summer’s eve. There is a joy and an invitation in God’s laughter.
Proverbs 16:9 says, “The heart of man plans his way, but the LORD establishes his steps.”
