We cannot bear now the revealing of our own future. Christ knows it all. When a young Christian comes to His feet and says, “I will follow Thee whithersoever Thou leadest,” the Master knows what that promise means. But He does not reveal the knowledge to this happy disciple. People sometimes say they wish they could look on into the years and see all that will come to them. But would this be a blessing? Would it make them happier? Could they shape their course better if they knew all that shall befall them – the struggles, the victories, the defeats, the joys and sorrows, the failures of bright hopes, just how long they will live?
