Is It Possible to Accept What Is Unpredictable?

It is difficult to acknowledge the importance of adaptability when uncertainty has to be faced. Adaptability conveys the idea of adjusting to changes at present and in the future. Adaptability is motivated by faith and trust.

Consider the new-born baby. This wonderful event changes the identity of the family. Sleep patterns are disrupted and attention must be given constantly to the infant. Parents are designed to delight in being co-creators of a new life.

Have you considered that God intended for your life to be unpredictable with changeable goals? We cannot know what tomorrow holds or how to always be prepared for what we do know. 

The apostle Paul gives these words of assurance to Timothy: “I know whom I have believed and am convinced that he [Jesus] is able to guard what I have entrusted to him.” In a world of uncertainty there is security in Jesus Christ.

Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he [God] who promised is faithful

~Hebrews 10:23 New International Version  

The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance

~2 Peter 3:9 New International Version
