JJUNE 4
FOR WHAT IS YOUR LIFE?

Scripture:  James 4:13, 14 “Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain:  Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life?  It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.”

    How short a time life really is!  Here today and gone tomorrow.  James ask the question here “what is your life?”  And then answers the question with “It is even a vapour”.  He tells us our lives are like a vapour that appears for a little while and vanishes away.
    Today we need to consider the brevity of life!  No one knows when our lives down here will end!  We don’t know how much time we have here, so we need to make the most of every day that the Lord gives us!  Spend a part of our day with Him!  Praying to Him and reading His precious Word and mediating on His plan for our lives.  Allowing Him to use us as He sees fit, to be a blessing and a help to others.
   A day spent for Jesus is never time wasted!  To be able to read and study His Word and to be able then to tell someone else about His love is the greatest honor that we could attain.  We surely do not know what will be on the morrow, so why not do today what you were planning on doing tomorrow? Maybe we could visit a loved one or maybe call on a friend that you haven’t talked to in a long time and just tell them how much you appreciate them and their love and friendship!  You may want to write a letter to someone that means a lot to you and tell them how you feel.  Whatever we are planning to do, do it now.  Don’t put it off!  Don’t wait! Realizing how short life really is will be the first step in getting busy doing something that will count for God! Thank God I know who holds tomorrow, and I know who holds my hand!
