Predicting the Future

"I wish I could predict the future, For there would be less anxiety to endure As you would know the outcome, Of that which was most worrisome You could change some events, So the outcome always made sense The problem with this, Always wanting your wish Is that you would always be changing, The outcome you were making Punch, Counter punch So in the end nothing you wanted to see, Turned out to be Perhaps this is why God gave us faith, To endure the wait Say a prayer or two, To get us through Those difficult times, Or a mountain climbed So we are in a happier space, To accept the results of “our” race For we are stronger than we know, To persevere through the challenges below So rise up and achieve on your own, The future you want known For there can be no prediction, Only personal dedication That the road you are on is true, And belief God chose this path for you"

I used to think predicting the future would be great until I had a dream of a serious car wreck on the 4th of July. That was over twenty-five years ago and I will not get into a car on the 4th of July.
