The Future

Philip, an 18 year old lad and a student, who lived with the whole family in the same house as his old and fragile gran, said to his mother: "Mum, when gran passes away, I'll take her room." A severe flu epidemic hits the country and left many victims, Philip being one of them. He died in a matter of days, and everyone mourned for him especially his old gran. It is to us humans who plan but God who carries out his will all the time. The future is a cause of concern for everyone.

St George Preca (Anecdotes n 7)

Do you consider yourself totally in control of what's to happen in the future? Does God come into this at all?
Does the thought of the hidden time of death ever come to your mind?
