Flowers and Life

I was walking around the outside of the house yesterday I was reminded of this picture that I had taken just of few weeks before.

This picture was the same flower that is in the picture above.

It reminded me of a few verses in the Bible.

James 4:14 "Where as you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away."

Therefore we should do as Paul says in Colossians 3:2 "Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth."

This life does not last. There is an ending, but for a follower of Jesus Christ, a Christian, there is hope. See this post on the hope of a Christian beyond the grave.However, We are a vapor. We need to focus and do things that matter. Someday we will be the second picture of the flower. Let us set our minds on things above.- Halfup
