You never can tell the future no matter how smart you are. I was listening to WFAN radio yesterday. The hosts of the afternoon program were discussing the upcoming play-off game between the New York Yankees and the Cleveland Indians. Both of them agreed that the Yankees would win and they each made an excellent case for why it would happen.
They talked about all the key players and reviewed past performances. They matched up the teams player for player and the final analysis made it so obvious that the Yankees would win that I wondered if it would even be fun to watch the game.
I was in the car when the game started and before the Yankees even came up to bat they were losing 2 - 0. So much for knowing it all. The Yankees were heavily favored but they still lost the game and the series. Why? Because life is not lived in a book or through statistics. It is lived moment by moment.
The things you do today will affect tomorrow. That is why we can always hope. The final pages of our life story haven't been written yet. We are writing them as we speak. The good news is that the victory doesn't always go to the swiftest or the brightest. It goes to the most faithful. So trust God and you will be amazed at what you and God can do together.
