Ecclesiastes 8:7 "Since no one knows the future, who can tell someone else what is to come?" (NIV)
Have you ever heard of Doctor Who? It is a British TV series that was started on November 23, 1963. This show has been running for 50 years today! Now this show is about a man named The Doctor, and no one knows his real name. He is a Time Lord and he has a blue police box called the TARDIS which means "Time and relative dimension in space." The TARDIS is a spaceship that can take him anywhere in space. This Doctor has many faces because he can regenerate after he has been hurt. He is the same man, just with a different face.
The Doctor also takes companions with him on the TARDIS. He doesn't like being alone and he normally chooses a human companion, see the Doctor is an alien. He is not violent though. He is 100% against violence and he saves the world with reasoning. I absolutely love this show because of how I feel about traveling. The Doctor is the ultimate traveler!
So why did I bring this up in my blog? Well, I think this show can teach us a lesson about God making plans for our travels. In Ecclesiastes we know God tells us that no one can know what the future holds and in Doctor Who we see more than once that the Doctor ends up in a mess by being in the same place two different times. Also in Matthew 6:34 says "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." While you watch Doctor Who you see that the Doctor is always happy and ready to go with the flow.
I think Doctor Who is a great show for all ages and can show a good message about needing to trust in God's Travel Plans instead of our own Travel Plans. So This is my thoughts on the 50th Anniversary of Doctor Who, which is premiering today.
