“Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.”

“One is never afraid of the unknown; one is afraid of the known coming to an end.”

“You cannot travel to the known; because all travels are towards the future and the future is unknown!”

“Lovecraft said that the oldest and strongest type of fear is the fear of the unknown. And he was an authority on such matters.But that's not exactly it, is it?We like the unknown. We're hunky dory with the unknown. We are, in fact, perfectly thrilled with the unknown -- as long as it remains unknown and we never have to think about it. What we're really afraid of is that the unknown will stand up and demand to be recognized. That it won't get out of the way quickly enough and we'll step in it, all squishy and moist. We're terrified at night in the dark that the rough, slouching unknown will crawl into bed and give us a hot wet kiss on the neck. We're not afraid of the unknown. We're afraid of the unknown becoming known.”

“For once a thing is known, it can never be unknown. It can only be forgotten.”

“We walk into the future in God-glorifying confidence, not because the future is known to us but because it is known to God. And that's all we need to know. Worry about the future is not simply a character tic, it is the sin of unbelief, an indication that our hearts are not resting in the promises of God.”
