God has a plan for all of us, but He expects us to do our share of the work.
Meaning of the quote
God has a special plan for each of us, but He also wants us to work hard and do our part. We can't just sit back and wait for things to happen - we need to put in the effort too. It's like having a big project you need to work on with a friend. Your friend might have a great idea, but you both need to do your fair share to make it happen. God wants to help us, but He also expects us to do our best and contribute in meaningful ways.
