Preparing for the future is not hard.

 So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom.

Psalm 90:12 (ESV)
 
We all live a specific number of days. If you are reading this, you do not know your final number, but the evidence of this truth is indisputable. In fact, we will all be "dead" from this life much longer than we are alive, yet we live as if the moment is our eternity.
 
So often, the moment eclipses the reality of the future, and we get lost and live confused lives. Those who do not plan for a future will be frightened by the idea and shocked by its reality.
There will be a future. Your life will not always be the same if you are alive now. What do you need to do to be ready for what will come?
 
Preparing for the future is not hard. We plan for what we know for sure and what is probable while trusting our God for the things we cannot know. If one does not know God, they are their own. Being on your own is scary and unnecessary.
