An Awesome Hope

So lately I have been super busy ONCE again…  sorry for not writing in a while but I’m sure that noone really reads this anyway I have been busy with school, soccer, church, TI, school, soccer and even more school… yes I lead a very exciting life, right?

Thinking… well I have been doing some of that lately. And the future, which I shouldn’t be worrying about, but I have just been thinking about it lately.. anyway.

Last night I was doing a devotional and the title of it was called ‘The Future.’ It was out of this book.. and it was really awesome.

It talked about how Jeremiah was called the ‘weeping prophet’ because he was always crying. Where he lived had gone through so much turmoil, and yet God still wanted him to do something for His glory. Jeremiah wiped his eyes and did what God called him to do. He told the people that God had a future and a hope for them. (Jeremiah 29:11)

The popular verses from Proverbs 3:5-6 were mentioned:

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart
       and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, 
       and he will make your paths straight.”

Also during the devotional it mentioned how in Hebrews 11 it talked about how the different prophets in this chapter and how they had faith in God and what kind of plans He had for their lives. Heb

“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.” -Hebrews 11:1

 

Thinking about the future, I have nothing going on in my life like what Jeremiah was going through, obviously, so shouldn’t I easily do what God wants me to do? I was created for God’s glory, and not my own. After I read this I realized once again that God does have a plan for my life- an awesome one at that. And I shouldn’t be worried about tomorrow.
