Why should we look into the future? "Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof" (Mt. 6:34). Let us surrender, like children, to our Heavenly Father, for "He will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able" (1 Cor. 10:13). You will only torment yourself with suspicion, and you won’t help the cause; you’ll even damage it by imagining evil in advance where perhaps there is none. If only we could not commit evil, but let them do it to us, if the Lord permits.
