What will the future look like?

I think most of us are fascinated with the future.
What will it look like?
What will our particular place in this future be?
As kids we dream about our future and who we will be and what we will do.
As adults we scheme and dream, hoping on hope that it will all work out in our favour.

I started thinking about this again this week as I trolled through some interesting youtube clips.
There was a series of them relating to newsreel footage of events dating as far back to the early 20th century.
One of the clips compiled were predictions about what the future would be like.
Funnily enough, they were trying to predict what life would be like for us now.
What clothes we would be wearing and the like. Women in glass gowns. Men carrying equipment on their person.

Here are some thoughts this week based around this...
God promises to gives us all a hope and a future
God would like us to sow now for a future harvest
God tells us to not worry about the future, that tomorrow will look after itself
God encourages us to make the most of today while it is called today
And God wants you to know the He has it all sorted above everything else.
You are His Kid.
You are the sheep of His pasture.
You are the clay on His potters wheel.
He has got it sorted! And He can see you finishing your race well...

The Lord directs the steps of the godly.
    He delights in every detail of their lives.

Psalm 37:23 NLT

Something to think about...
