Anchor Scripture: “The secret things belong to God, but the things revealed belong to us and our children forever, that we may follow all the words of these laws.” - Deuteronomy 29:29 KJV.

In an extraordinary twist of cinematic history, the much-anticipated film, *The 100 Years Movie*, has been sealed away in a time capsule for a century, set to premiere in the year 2115. This intriguing science fiction film, originally captured on camera in 2015, offers a mesmerizing look into a distant future, replete with astonishing technological advancements that challenge our current perceptions of reality.

The mastermind behind this ambitious project is Ludovic du Plessis, the Global Executive Director of Louis XIII Cognac. He has ingeniously designed a bespoke safe incorporating a “revolutionary timer” that meticulously counts down one hundred years. Once the timer reaches zero, the safe will release its contents effortlessly, unaffected by any external power source, ensuring the film is unveiled exactly as intended, a century after its creation.

Echoing the wisdom encapsulated in Deuteronomy 29:29, the director’s vision for this film parallels the divine mysteries God holds. Just as the narrative hints at robots undertaking human responsibilities, leading to unforeseen upheaval, God also safeguards secret truths within His boundless wisdom

. As we navigate life's trials, we may find ourselves praying fervently, fasting diligently, and giving generously, yet some aspects may remain unchanged in our lives. It is within these moments of uncertainty that we must learn to wait patiently, trusting that God has a beautiful plan in store for us. It's crucial to refrain from seeking solutions through diviners or practitioners of dark arts, as such paths do not align with God’s will and bring no joy to His heart.

Psalm 25:9 brings solace, revealing, "The meek will He guide in judgment, and the meek will He teach His way." By adopting a spirit of meekness, we open ourselves to the profound secrets of God and the wisdom they contain.

In instances where God seems to deny a request—perhaps your desire for a new car—it may be due to His foresight. He knows how such a blessing could inadvertently lead to challenges in the future. Sometimes, He may delay fulfilling a request to keep us sheltered from unforeseen pitfalls, reinforcing that He fully understands the perfect timing for our needs.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 reminds us that God's provisions align with our needs rather than mere desires. Miracles often emerge from a process, demonstrating that things do not merely happen by chance. He is the sovereign God who comprehends the entirety of time – from beginning to end.

REFLECTION: Let us take a moment to introspect and explore the areas in our lives that evoke worry. Are we prepared to exercise patience and await the marvelous path God has mapped out for us?

PRAYERS: May the Almighty grant us the grace to trust unreservedly in His guidance, equipping us to embrace life’s abundant blessings, in Jesus' name, amen.
