trust. and pretzels

"14 When times are good, be happy;
but when times are bad, consider:
God has made the one
as well as the other.
Therefore, a man cannot discover
anything about his future." - Ecclesiastes 7

1. sometimes i question why god does what he does or why certain things happen. then i remember, this is his world im living in, his universe, his existence. who am i to question his ways or works? god has made both good and bad times for this world and for me, i need to learn to accept .
2. sometimes i plan out my life, whether that be in the form of insignificant daily activities or ambitious lifelong dreams. then i discover the futility of my plan-making, the lack of control or power i have over my life, and am humbled. who am i to set order to my life? he knows my future perfectly, i need to learn to trust.

let me live here with you in this moment, sane mistrust of your will, sans regard for my future, avec joy and fellowship and servitude
