“I place the future in the Hands of God.”
What better place to put it in?
The future is a figment of your imagination. As such, the concept of the future might come in handy when you are organizing agenda items, things like scheduling appointments so they are not planned at the same time, or leaving home in time for the show, those types of very practical things.
However, the future remains a figment of your imagination. Any concern, worry or dread is a figment of your imagination too and you would be projecting worry onto the imagined situation if you allowed yourself to entertain worry. And sure enough, it will come to pass that way. Not because you “knew it!”, but because of the quality and direction of your focus. After all, the images in the world reflect the content of your mind.
What better place to put the future than in the Hands of God! That is another way of saying that you set your worries free by releasing your hold on them; you hand them over to inner guidance. In a way you forgive the imagined future for the trouble you think you see ahead. It is all a figment of your imagination, and imagination is pliable. It responds to your ability to choose.
