Would You Like to Know Everything That’s Going to Happen?

Would You Like to Know Everything That’s Going to Happen?

Let’s admit it.  We often felt it would be cool to know what’s going to happen next.

We’d like to guess how the movie we’re watching is going to end. We’d like to know whether we’d marry the person we like so much. We’d like to know what the winning numbers will be at the next lottery!

Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have such a gift?

But what if we could really take a peek into the future? Are we going to be happy in the long run?

What if we’d know all the events that are going to happen to us – the person we’d marry, the kids we’d have, the problems we’d encounter, how these problems are going to be solved. What if there will be nothing left hidden from us, to surprise us, to take our breath away? Are we still going to have as much zest in living our lives?

The journey of life, like every other journey, is filled with unexpected turns. Oftentimes, even if we have a map with us, we don’t really know whether a path has been blocked, and another one opened for us, another path which is more challenging, and better filled with joys God desires us to claim.

Let us not lose heart when things don’t always go as we expect them to. Sometimes, we’d be more thankful they turned out far better than we imagined them to be! 😉
