It isn't that we have our heads in the sand, it is that we have been carefully instructed to pray about the future and leave it at the Throne.
The flesh is a writhing, convulsive, dominating vacuum that will dictate every thought and action if allowed.
We have His Word. He will not let anything slip out of control. If things go awry according to human concept, we will still be confident in His Promises if we have prayed according to His Word.
Soldier, there is much to do. No hour is without purpose.
Today you must do the thing before you and you must do it to the best of your ability.
Give it to him. Aloud.
Today.
