Scripture

Boasting About Tomorrow

13 Now listen, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money.” 14 Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. 15 Instead, you ought to say, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that.” 16 As it is, you boast in your arrogant schemes. All such boasting is evil. 17 If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn’t do it, it is sin for them.

Observation

The future is not something which one can predict. Do not be boastful and think that you can be the master of your faith. GOD is in charge.

Application

 Put your trust  in him and be grateful for what you receive from GOD.  Don't be tempted by the ways of the WORLD which gives you false hope. 

Prayer.

Dear LORD,

I entrust my life to you. I know that you alone know my future and lead me where I need to be.

AMEN.
