| 0:00.0 | Hello, my friends. It is good to be with you again, Carrie Green here. It's time for the |
| 0:07.9 | morning mindset. This is our attempt to get our minds aligned with the truth of God |
| 0:12.5 | for this day. I hope that you're doing well today. I wanted to remind you about our |
| 0:17.6 | nonprofit. It's called Not A Needy Person. And it's our desire to reflect the same attitude |
| 0:24.2 | that existed in the early church in Acts chapter 4. You can read about that. It says |
| 0:29.1 | that people were voluntarily giving of the means God had blessed them with so that none |
| 0:34.3 | among them had need. That's where not a needy person comes from. One version says not |
| 0:40.6 | a needy person was among them. And so we just have this vision to enable believers in Christ |
| 0:46.0 | to make their needs known and other believers in Christ to voluntarily come along and help |
| 0:50.5 | meet those needs. Not a needy person is a platform that enables that to happen on a |
| 0:56.0 | limited scale. Please check it out at Not A Needy Person.org. And let me know what you think. |
| 1:02.0 | Okay, today we're talking about faith as it pertains to the future. Now I don't have any |
| 1:09.4 | sort of a way of looking into the future and seeing what's going to happen. Neither do |
| 1:14.0 | you. And for that reason, we need to have an appropriate humility before the God of creation |
| 1:20.3 | who does know the future. And in fact has ordained the future. All things are working according |
| 1:25.5 | to his plan. And the book of Proverbs chapter 27 verses 1 and 12 both have comments about |
| 1:33.4 | how we should behave in light of the fact that we don't know about the future. Verse |
| 1:37.9 | 1 says it very obviously. It says do not boast about tomorrow. For you do not know what |
| 1:43.6 | a day may bring. So what does that mean when it says do not boast about tomorrow? Well, |
| 1:49.2 | it's telling us we should not say things in such a confident manner like tomorrow. I'm |
| 1:54.8 | going to go do this or I'm going to go on vacation to Europe in March, you know, or something |
| 2:00.1 | like that. We just need to be a little more circumspect a little more humble in the way |
