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. James 4:14
Recently, my sixty-seven year old cousin was killed in a car accident. He retired several years ago from a large pharmaceutical company but was working part-time as a driver for an eye specialist. He was on a run when he went through a stop sign and a semi hit him broadside.
Witnesses said, he stopped at the sign but then the vehicle rolled through the intersection.
It is thought he had a heart attack and was most likely dead before the semi hit him. There is some comfort in knowing he went quickly!
He and his wife were planning to celebrate their fiftieth wedding anniversary this year and he was planning to retire from the part-time job.
I said all of that to say….we make plans in this life but the most important plan we must make is, where will we spend eternity?
In life we have many choices but with eternity there is only two.
If we live to be a hundred years old this life is so short, “even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time.”
Where will you spend eternity?
We have been in the ministry since 1977. Our calling to the ministry has included pastoring, evangelism and disciple work, as well as missions. We have been married over 50 years and have three children who have blessed us with six grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
