Wasting Time with Pointless Predictions

Now that June has rolled around, I'm having to think a lot more about what I'm doing when my Bible College course finally finishes at the end of the year.
Its a question I've been able to avoid for three years, and to finally face up to it is quite daunting.

As I have mentioned earlier, I'm beginning to feel unsettled, and have been wondering if I'm even going to be here next year, but spending too much time on this has actually had negative results for me. I've become so distracted looking at what the future might bring that I haven't been focussing enough on the present.

Paul reminds us to run the race so as to win the prize, but someone pointed out to me recently that I got tangled in one of the last hurdles. Words of wisdom: no one remembers how you start the race, they remember how you finish.

God has it all in control. If I can stop worrying about the future, he'll make sure that my present takes me there.

Its important to leave what's going to happen in our lives to the guy who wrote them.
