The miracle of Jesus is himself, not what he said or did about the future. Forget the future. I'd worship someone who could do that.

We talk about this and that. There’s no rest except on these branching moments.
Who looks out with my eyes? What is the soul? I cannot stop asking. If I could taste one sip of an answer, I could break out of this prison for drunks. I didn't come here of my own accord, and I can't leave that way. Whoever brought me here, will have to take me home.
Move outside the tangle of fear-thinking. Live in silence. Flow down and down in always widening rings of being.
