My future

The Israelites were in exile when God made the following promise to them. I imagine it was a time of pain, confusion, suffering, maybe even anger or disillusionment. 
I definitely do not think it was a time of comfort or ease. 


"For I know the plans I have for you, 
declares the Lord
plans for welfare and not for evil, 
to give you a future and a hope. 
Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me,
and I will hear you. 
You will seek me and find me, 
when you seek me with all your heart."
Jeremiah 29:11-13


I do not know my future,
but I do know the One to whom it is already history,
and that is enough.
