Future Events

[Anonymous]

I hope not to get sick with the cold, flu or worse. I hope to go to a friend’s (###) birthday party and hope no issues with transportation and that I don’t arrive late. Hope to get new scooter, what I have has issues and old, hope still works for now. Hope that I arrive to church at all, and I hope it doesn’t arrive too early or too late. I hope I return home at a reasonable time. I don’t know if I am going out of town in August, but very likely (assuming the internet there works as my mum ### has tech issues, long story) but issues like no scooter and likely not being able to go to church. I already missed enough church as it is, my mum ### is a bit backwards minded and worry about her thinking that I don’t mind missing church or something of that nature. I hope my parents deposit cheques soon. I also hope to get money I am owed very soon.

We come before the Lord with your concerns, lifting each one to Him in prayer, for He knows every detail of our lives and cares deeply for us. The Bible reminds us in Matthew 6:34, "Therefore don’t be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day’s own evil is sufficient." While it is natural to have concerns about the future, we trust in God’s provision and timing, knowing He holds all things in His hands.

Father, we pray for protection over your health, asking that You would guard you from illness, whether it be a cold, flu, or anything worse. Strengthen your immune system and grant you vitality to serve You faithfully. We declare Your promise in Psalm 91:10-11 over you: "No evil shall happen to you, neither shall any plague come near your dwelling. For He will put His angels in charge of you, to guard you in all your ways."

We also lift up the practical matters of transportation and timing. Lord, we ask that You would smooth the way for you to attend your friend’s birthday party, providing safe and timely travel. May Your peace go before you, and may any obstacles be removed. We trust in Your word from Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight."

Regarding your scooter, we pray for Your provision, Father. You know the need for reliable transportation, and we ask that You would make a way for you to obtain a new one if it is Your will. Until then, we pray that the current scooter would hold up and serve you well. We are reminded of Philippians 4:19, "My God will supply every need of yours according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus."

For your church attendance, we pray that You would grant you the desire and ability to gather with Your people consistently. The writer of Hebrews encourages us in Hebrews 10:24-25, "Let’s consider how to provoke one another to love and good works, not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching." Father, we ask that You would soften your mother’s heart and help her understand the importance of corporate worship. Give you wisdom in how to communicate this to her with grace and love.

For the potential trip in August, we pray for clarity and peace. If it is Your will for you to go, we ask that You would provide a way for you to continue in fellowship with believers, even if it looks different from what you are accustomed to. We also pray for your mother’s technology issues, asking that You would grant her understanding and patience as she navigates them.

Father, we lift up your financial concerns to You. We ask that You would move on the hearts of those who owe you money, prompting them to fulfill their obligations swiftly. We also pray for your parents, asking that You would guide them in depositing the cheques in a timely manner. Your word assures us in Luke 6:38, "Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, will be given to you. For with the same measure you measure it will be measured back to you."

Lastly, we want to gently remind you of the importance of coming to God through the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through Him that we have access to the Father, as He Himself declared in John 14:6, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through Me.'" If you have not already, we encourage you to place your trust in Jesus for the forgiveness of your sins and the gift of eternal life. Romans 10:9 tells us, "That if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved."

Heavenly Father, we lift all these requests to You, trusting in Your goodness and sovereignty. May Your will be done in each of these situations, and may Your name be glorified. Grant you peace that surpasses all understanding as you walk in faith, knowing that You are in control. In Jesus’ precious name, we pray. Amen.

We can hear how many things are crowding your mind right now, each one on its own might be manageable, but all together it can feel heavy. It’s not just about the scooter, the party, or arriving on time; it’s the constant mental load of wondering if everything will fall into place. That kind of running anticipation is exhausting, and we don’t want to minimize it.

Rather than trying to silence every “what if” at once, it can help to sort them quietly with God: which details can you act on today, and which need to be placed in His hands? For example, if the scooter is still limping along, maybe there’s one call you could make this week to explore a repair or replacement option, even a small step eases the helpless feeling. For the travel worries, could you build in extra time so that early or late feel less make-or-break? Simple buffers can give your mind permission to settle.

As for your mum’s opinions and the possible trip in August, those concerns run deeper than logistics. It is hard when others draw conclusions about your heart that don’t match who you are. We’re glad you care about being at church, and God sees that. He isn’t keeping score like we often assume, and He knows your circumstances. You don’t have to defend yourself to Him.

Let’s bring these things together in prayer:

Father, You are not distant or distracted. You see every practical need here, transportation, health, finances, and You also see the inner weight of anxiety and misunderstood intentions. We ask for Your steady peace to quiet the racing thoughts. Please provide a reliable scooter at the right time, smooth plans for the birthday and church, and clarity around the August trip. Guard our friend from illness, and settle the money matters. Most of all, help them sense You walking ahead into each day, so they can breathe deeply and rest. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

You have spread your requests thick upon the ground, and I perceive a heart that frets over many trifles. Sickness, a friend’s party, the hour of your arrival, a failing scooter, your mother’s opinion, cheques and debts, these things have pushed themselves into the very place which belongs to your God. Are you not a child of the heavenly family? Then walk as a child of the King, for He who feeds the ravens and clothes the lilies is not slack concerning your daily bread. Your agitation about arriving too early or too late for church betrays a mind that has not yet fully rested in the ordering of Providence. The Lord’s day and the Lord’s house are not served by anxious glances at the clock; they are kept by a willing heart that says, “I will be there, come what may.”

I am grieved that you speak of missing church as a likely thing, and that your own mother’s thinking might trap you into further absence. A backward mind is no excuse for a backward step. The early Church continued steadfast, through persecutions, through poverty, through the loss of all things. Yet here a scooter that is old and a journey in August become mountains in your eye. If the scooter fails, are your feet bound? If the internet does not work, must your soul go without the bread of life? You are a member of a family that is whole in itself, needing nothing from without to make it complete, the church of the living God. To absent yourself without grave cause is to starve the child while the Father’s table is spread. I charge you, let nothing short of sickness or imprisonment keep you from the assemblies of the saints. Your mother’s fears will be answered far better by a cheerful, consistent walk than by coddling her tech troubles at the cost of the means of grace.

Do not imagine that health, money, and timely arrival are the chief things. These hopes are too small for an heir of heaven. The Lord added daily to the Church those who were being saved, a Holy Spirit Church, steadfast and devout. Ought you not to be among them with such a grip upon the promise that neither scooter nor August trip can pry you loose? Your parents’ cheques and the money you are owed, these are crumbs which the Master will scatter when it pleases Him. “All things are yours,” saith the apostle, but the heart that is always clutching at them proves it has not yet learned to possess them without being possessed by them.

I would to God you saw how close to the edge of inconsistency you stand when you let such ordinary cares threaten your fellowship. If you are a daughter of the imperial house, act like one. Let not a novel-reading, untidy, or eye-serving professor be your pattern, but those who ate their meat with gladness and singleness of heart. Attend upon the means of grace, not merely the Lord’s Day services, but the prayer meeting, the breaking of bread, the gathering of the family. And when you do come, come with an appetite that expects to be fed, not with an eye that calculates the minutes.

Pray that the Spirit would guide you, and cease from this fretting. If you belong to Christ, you are married to Him who paid all your debts and bears your sicknesses. He will not leave you to starve upon the road. Go to the party, but go as one whose first engagement is with her Lord. Ride the old scooter with thanksgiving, and trust that the new one will appear precisely when the old is past use. Deposit your hopes with the Bank of Heaven, which never fails, and let your mother see that you do not mind missing church only because you live for it and would sooner lose a limb.

Finally, let family prayer be revived under your roof if it has grown cold. A daughter’s gentle persistence may do more to bring a backward parent forward than a year of silent worry. The Spirit leads whom He will, but He often leads through the quiet influence of a holy life. Rise from these small hopes to the one great hope, the glorious Church without spot or wrinkle, and let your daily walk be worthy of that high calling.

[Chrysostom]

You hope not to get sick, to go to a friend's birthday, to have a new scooter, and for no troubles with transportation or arriving at church. But how many changes like these do you see taking place every day? For this reason, let not him who is on shaky ground despair, nor him who seems secure be confident. To the one He says, "Watch," and to the other, "Awake, you who sleep, and arise from the dead." For those who think they stand must be careful not to fall, and those who are weak must lift up their drooping hands and feeble knees. Many who are sick become healthy, and many who are healthy grow careless and weak.

Clothe yourself with spiritual fire, and gird yourself with its flame. No one who bears this flame fears what meets him; be it wild beast, be it man, be it snares without number, so long as he is armed with fire, everything stands out of his way. Let your mind stretch toward Heaven and be held fast by that desire. These earthly things, a broken scooter or a delayed trip, are nothing before that fire.

You hope for money owed and for a new scooter. But listen: he is not poor who has nothing, but he who desires many things. He is not rich who has large possessions, but he who stands in need of nothing. What profit is it to possess the whole world and yet live in greater despondency than the one who has nothing? Your disposition makes you rich or poor, not the abundance or lack of money. Would you become rich? Despise the world's wealth, think it nought, as it is nought. Cast out the desire of wealth, and you are straightway rich.

The publican, grievously sick with the fever of covetousness, was quickly set free by obeying the physician's laws. Do not despair; even a chief of publicans promised to give half his goods and fourfold for what he had taken, that he might receive Jesus. Your anxieties about these things come from the same sickness. Do not judge according to appearance. What looks like loss or delay may be the healing of your soul.

We sent Epaphroditus with great diligence, without delay, that he might be freed from heaviness. We rejoice not merely on hearing of those we love but especially when we see them, and most when it happens contrary to hope. Do not let these many cares weigh you down. If you stretch your mind toward Heaven, the flame of divine love will leave no room for fear about late arrivals or faulty scooters. Trust in the one who makes a whole man healthy, not in partial remedies. Then you will go to church with a heart free, whether early or late, and your return home at any hour will be in peace. For the rich man was not punished for being rich but for showing no pity; it is not possessions but virtue and the fear of God that give confidence. Gifts and presents blind the eyes of the wise, but he who chooses poverty willingly is richer even than the king.
