Faith!

The area of life most often consumed with doubt is the future. We just don’t know what tomorrow will bring and that lack of knowledge fills us with fear over the unknown.

Ø  Faith, however, welcomes the future with grateful optimism.

Ø  Faith looks to the future with confidence because faith know who controls tomorrow, Rom. 8:28.

Ø  Faith knows the God Who plans tomorrow, Isa. 46:9-10.

Ø  Faith knows the God Who safely leads His people through today and through all the tomorrows of life, Psa. 37:23.

·      Why can faith be so hopeful when it looks ahead? Faith focuses its attention on the things that glorify God and on the things that lead the saints closer to God.

·      Faith is thankful when it faces the future because faith does not concern itself with tomorrow.  Faith contents itself to look into the face of God, knowing that while tomorrow might be filled with its share of pain and disappointment,  faith knows Who  holds all the tomorrows of life in His hand.

·      When your eyes are on the Lord, you can face the future!
