Your future is bright

I know several young people that are approaching graduations from high school and college that are twenty times smarter than I ever was or will ever be. They have a lot of potential and a really bright future. For those graduating college, I suspect that they will go into the "real" world and make a huge splash. For those headed to college, I suspect that they will just further increase their knowledge and, then, go out into the "real" world and make a huge splash. Yes, bright futures indeed.

The secret, though, is that we all have bright futures if we are GOD'S children. This world may tell us otherwise; it may try to beat us down and discourage us; tell us that we are used up and washed up and worthless, but it is wrong!

Today's word is a simple quote from William Carey that says, "Your future is as bright as the promises of GOD."

How do I know, if you're a child of GOD, that you have a bright future? Because, GOD has promised it and He NEVER breaks His promises. He has promised to never leave us nor forsake us; we are never alone. He has promised to bring us to a good end; it may suck right now but it will get better. He has sent us a Comforter to be with us and guide us and help us.

There are so many promises to talk about but we will finish with the ultimate promise. JESUS said that He was going to prepare us a mansion, and that if He went (and He did), that He would come again (He will), and will receive us unto Himself so that where He is there we will be also. Eternity in Heaven - that is certainly a bright future!

Be Blessed,
