Psalm 39:5 (NKJV) 5 Indeed, You have made my days as handbreadths, And my age is as nothing before You; Certainly every man at his best state is but vapor.
We are, at the very best, vapor.
It doesn’t matter what we attain, what we accomplish or how much we accumulate while we’re alive here on earth. In the end, we are all the same.
We can be a homeless person on the street or the CEO of a billion dollar global corporation, living in a multi-million dollar mansion. It doesn’t matter. Because when we breathe our last breath, our life has been no more than a vapor.
We may live to be a hundred years old. And we may be looked upon as being alive for many decades, but in the eyes of God, our age is nothing.
Life goes by so fast. I always tell people who have a newborn baby that they had better not blink, because if they do, their child will be an adult and moving out of the house to get married.
Many people chuckle when I say that to them, but years later, they tell me how true it is, as they see their children growing up so quickly.
We need to cherish each day that we’re given. Each day is a gift from God, not ours to dawdle away or waste.
We need to love those around us and spend time with them while we can. We never know when we will see someone for the last time.
Let’s live life with purpose, not letting it slip through our fingers. This may sound cliché, but it’s a truth that only we can embrace and bring to reality in our own lives. Nobody can do it for us.
So love God and those He has placed in your life. It doesn’t get any better than that.
