I enjoyed the discussion around separating the negativity from the uncertainty and increasing the area of serendipity. Reminds of Hebrews 11:8 where it describes Abraham going out not knowing where he was going.

Thanks Jeff! And yeah that’s a great connection. Best we can do is just focus on trying to do the next right thing in God’s eyes and leave the results up to Him.

And how great was their faith to go all their life still waiting for the miracle but being solid in their obedience and hope. Verse 13-16 (MSG) “Each one of these people of faith died not yet having in hand what was promised, but still believing. How did they do it? They saw it way off in the distance, waved their greeting, and accepted the fact that they were transients in this world. People who live this way make it plain that they are looking for their true home. If they were homesick for the old country, they could have gone back any time they wanted. But they were after a far better country than that—heaven country. You can see why God is so proud of them, and has a City waiting for them.”
