1PE 1:24-25 NIV
For, “All people are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of the Lord endures forever.”
Life indeed is brief. Its best spells are few and far between. There are situations and circumstances that arise in life that makes you wonder why we pursue the things we do. All that we own and hold are fuel for the fire that is coming. We chase after the created things, thinking they can replace the Creator himself, but as we will all be aware eventually, Nothing can replace God in our lives. As I read these verses, I am made aware of the brevity of life. No matter how rich or beautiful we are now, there's a process of time and change that will reveal the shallowness of all that we own and hold. We would realise eventually that all these things are not as important as the personality of the Creator himself.
No matter what you acquire, nothing is as important as the person of the Creator himself. He is the Word that lives in the beginning with God, He is the One actively involved in creation and long after this world as we see it is over, He will continue to exist. All who find him find life and all who live in him enjoy eternity.
Have you found him? Are you holding on to Him or seriously searching for the ephemeral things that do not satisfy? His time of favour is here.
