新加坡人很熟悉 CPF。
我们今天把一部分收入储蓄起来，为的是将来的需要——住房、医疗，更重要的是退休后的生活。
换句话说，CPF 是今天为未来作预备。
读到耶利米书29章，我忽然发现三个英文字很有意思：
C — Call 呼求
P — Pray 祷告
F — Find 寻见
而这一段话的开始，正是：
“Future & Hope”——未来与盼望。
神告诉被掳中的百姓，虽然眼前的环境并不容易，但祂仍然知道他们的未来。
接着祂告诉他们：
Call — 呼求我
Pray — 向我祷告
Find — 你们必寻见我
现实中的 CPF 提醒我们为未来储蓄；
属灵的 CPF 却提醒我：
面对未来，不只是预备足够的储蓄，
更重要的是知道我的盼望在哪里。
今天为明天储备金钱，
也要为生命储备信心。
Call · Pray · Find
呼求 · 祷告 · 寻见
因为真正给我们 Future & Hope——未来与盼望 的，是那位应许：
“你们寻求我……就必寻见。”
CPF: Saving for a Future and a Hope
19 August 2026 | Jeremiah 29:11–14 Devotional
📖 Scripture
Jeremiah 29:11
“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you,” says Yahweh, “thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future.”
Jeremiah 29:12
“You shall call on me, and you shall go and pray to me, and I will listen to you.”
Jeremiah 29:13–14
“You shall seek me, and find me, when you search for me with all your heart. I will be found by you,” says Yahweh.

✦ Devotional Reflection
Singaporeans are very familiar with CPF.
We set aside part of our income today to prepare for future needs—housing, healthcare, and especially retirement.
In other words, CPF is about preparing today for the future.
As I read Jeremiah 29, three English words stood out to me:
C — Call
P — Pray
F — Find
And just before these words comes this beautiful promise:
“Future & Hope.”
God spoke these words to His people while they were in exile. Although their present circumstances were difficult, He already knew their future.
Then He told them:
Call — Call on Me
Pray — Pray to Me
Find — You will find Me
Our CPF in Singapore reminds us to save and prepare for our future.
But this spiritual CPF reminds us of something even deeper:
When facing the future, it is not only about having enough savings.
More importantly, it is knowing where our hope is found.
As we save financially today for tomorrow,
let us also build up our faith for the journey ahead.
Call · Pray · Find
Because the One who gives us a Future & Hope is also the One who promises:
“You shall seek Me, and find Me.”
