My notes from Bill Stephens talk at The Annex, Just around the riverbend…C’mon, the unknown future sucks!, March 10, 2009
Potentially relevant passages: James 4:13-17
What I learned in the battle of the unknown future:
- I can’t always trust my emotions
- It could go either way
- Strong Godly voices are strong Godly voices
- Getting more information is not as satisfying as it seems
- No information and trusting in God is better than partial information and trusting in myself
Think about the:
- Present: 80% of the time
- Future: 10% of the time
- Past: 10% of the time
Other things I wrote down:
- Railroad Theology
- Stay close, even if you don’t want to. Trust.
