Let me take you back to the days before rain.  You're Noah & you're minding your own business being the only righteous person in a corrupt world.  That had to be very discouraging.  Then one day God comes to you & tells you to build a boat because He's going to flood the earth.  I imagine if I was Noah I might have said "what's a boat & what's a flood." However, the only response it shows is "So Noah did everything as the Lord commanded Him(Gen. 7:5 NLT).  He didn't question, he just followed.  Even though he bayberries didn't understand the plan, he followed.  So for around 100 years, Noah built the ark.  Can you imagine the ridicule from his neighbors.  Maybe even his family began to wonder about the voice Noah heard.  And yet Noah followed.  Then one day the rains came, the earth was flooded, & Noah & his family were saved.  All because Noah followed.  I think we need to spend less time trying to understand Gods plan & more time following Gods plan.  It might take a while, we might be ridiculed, but we need to follow.  God will provide what we need at the exact time we need it if we will just follow .  We may not always understand the plan but we can always trust the creator.
