The future never looks bleak through the eyes of faith.
That is because we have the Word of God, and He has already made explicit
promises about things to come and Hid provision.
When the mind whirs and convulses over the future, it is because we are trying
to take control of the thing before time has allowed us to touch it.
The Lord has given us a miraculous way to prepare tomorrow and to prepare
ourselves for tomorrow. The one who prays this way will be released from worry's
stranglehold, and will be in the Light, enabled to see the well-lit Path.
The wilderness is all around. Marriage, money, health issues, complexities and
even persecutions - these are all wilderness experiences. But we have a Guide.
We have the Light of the World. We have the Alongside One.
He never teases and He never plays hide-and-seek. He is right before you, and
when the moment comes He will lead you in it.
