Firstly, I think the narrative is changing by the day with the new generation we have today, the generation of "You Only Live Once (YOLO), So why not enjoy your life while you're alive... Hehehehe...
Secondly, we tend to underestimate God's presence and role in our lives and its quite disadvantageous to us whether we like it or not
From personal experience I have learnt to just allow God lead, while I follow, I mean, its good to be ambitious, its good to have and make plans, its good to want to be successful, but I have also learnt from my bible that many plans are in the heart of man, but only God's plan for him will be established. Likewise, the Bible also tells us that the Plans of God for our lives are plans of good and not evil, to give us a future, a hope and an expected end...
If only we can acknowledge him, accept his undeniable existence and roles, submit to Him and be eternally grateful, then we will be more than fine...
Beautiful write-up here, very well done
