Over Or Just Starting?
Has the Millennium Year just
finished or just begun?
Have you heard the arguments, one way and another?
I think its
over, though others I know say its just starting.
Whoever is
right, if it really matters, the world is still turning
on its axis and
making its way around the sun.
Time continues
and we are still here.
That puts the
kibosh on predictions of the world's end!
It
is strange how people try to predict the future.
From
massive events like the end of the world to less earth shattering affairs
like our career progress, lottery chances or prospects in love - someone
always thinks they can forecast the course of our lives. Their
speculations may get close to the mark - but often they don't!
The
Bible comments
on our planning,
scheming & predicting
- even if we
don't consult 'the experts'.
Take this
example from the Book of Proverbs:
Many are the
plans in a man's heart,
but it is the
LORD's purpose that prevails .
Proverbs 19.21
NIV
I reckon this is
worth remembering for the year ahead.
Everyday I need
God to show me His purpose for my life.
May GOD Bless YOU Through AD 2001
