Anything we take for granted will disappear. (James 4:13-17) MAN-CENTERED APPROACH Any statement of assurance of the future is arrogant Our lives are not sure GOD-CENTERED APPROACH If the Lord wills (D.V. deo volente) The root of arrogance is pride Sin of omission What about you? Count your days and apply your heart to wisdom. (Psalm 90:12) Always acknowledge God (Proverbs 3:5-8)
