Jesus Is My Future

Jesus controls the future. We may know what we want. Or, know what we think we want. But Jesus knows better. He truly does work all things out for our good and His glory. If we can be assured of that, then we can have peace with regard to the future.

I have some questions in to Jesus, questions about the future that He sees fit not to answer. I seem to always have questions for Jesus about the future. And here’s what I am learning to see: Jesus is my future.

If I can be assured that the future will be for my good, that the future will be for Jesus’ glory, and that Jesus is my future, I can have great rest.

I think I used to view the future as a frightening unknown. And I am not saying that I still don’t. My mind travels there. But more deeply than ever, I believe that Jesus being my future means that I need not fear.

When has He ever failed me? Never. Never. Never. And, He won’t. He won’t. Why, friends, do I even need to remind myself of that? It should be a superfluous, redundant thought. But I think in a human way. And, He sees fit to allow reassurances that I shouldn’t need. It is His mercy.

Jesus is my future. That’s all I need to know.
