But there is something subtly deceptive and dangerous about that system. The assumption is that God is automatically obligated or willing or excited to bless our plan. I don't see in Scripture where He makes that kind of promise. Yes, we do everything for the glory of God, but that doesn't mean everything we do for His glory will ultimately have the assurance of His blessing.
There is one thing God said He would bless with a guarantee: His plan. Rather than trying to be ultra-persuasive and extra-innovative - neither of those bad things - we seek and desire to align ourselves with the plan He has already promised to bless.
And we just get that from reading His Word and listening carefully to His voice.
And be blessed.

Did God ever intend for His work to be as weighty as we feel it to be? I ask this of my own ministry involvement. I wonder hich Jesus found most cumbersome; church adminisration, disputes amongst disciples, closed ears, etc? I agree with you, it's easiest when I remain in His Word which is doing His Will! Praying for KFAoG admin!
