God formed us and ordained our days before we were bornGod intricately formed our bodies and wrote down all our ordained days in His mind before we were even formed in the womb.
Cooperating with God's plan instead of living passivelyFulfilling God's plan requires active cooperation; we can mess up His plan through rebellion and waste years of our lives.

Living in daily repentanceGod overlooks past ignorance when we repent, but we must live in daily repentance as we walk closely with Him.
Discovering new areas of unchristlikeness as we growA true sign of spiritual growth is uncovering subtle areas in our character that are unchristlike, much like advancing through different grades in school.
Why expecting people to say thank you is unchristlikeExpecting thanks from humans for acts done as unto the Lord reveals that we were serving men rather than treating the deed as done directly to Christ.
Jesus glorified God by finishing His assigned workDespite living a short life and staying within a small region, Jesus glorified God by faithfully completing the specific work He was given.
Keeping a good conscience to know God's planTo discover and fulfill God's plan, we must keep a clear conscience by dealing with sin, seeking help from the body of Christ, and avoiding self-reliance.
