A Glimpse of a Struggle

So, I don’t know about you, but something that I struggle with sometimes is the sudden realization of the unknown. I have been working through this for a while. As this training year ends I begin to stress about summer plans, and wonder concerningly what next year will look like when all the second year trainees leave while new trainees join in as first years. It is concerning when I have assumed then suddenly realize that I have no clue what is going to happen. Usually I am excited about these sorts of things. Well,except people I love leaving. I have never been very fond of that. However, the reality check for me the other night was exactly that. I assume that I will wake up tomorrow, and do life similarly as I have today. However, I truly never really know what will happen tomorrow. No one does, but thankfully my God who has me does. We have a kind, gracious, and loving God that knows us fully well, including what tomorrow will hold and every day after that. And for those of you that believe and have entrusted your life to following Him one of those days includes the last day where one day will be as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day. We get to spend eternity in His presence. I think we can trust him with the todays and tomorrows of this world knowing the eternal worship we get to spend in the next.  This has been my prayer lately… Father, please help me learn to live in light of the eternal dwelling in the presence of the lamb that was slain. Forgive me of my fears, and anxieties of the unknown. Please keep me from the anxieties of this temporary world, and keep me constantly fixed on seeking your presence. So that I will trust in all your ways, always.
