13Now listen, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money." 14Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. 15Instead, you ought to say, "If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that." 16As it is, you boast and brag. All such boasting is evil. 17Anyone, then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn't do it, sins.
~James 4:13-17
Who are we but a vapour? Really, why do we care so much about the things of this world... don't we know that we are sinning against the holy God?
We really ought to be keeping eternity in mind, and keep in mind that we have to come before His throne, in all His holiness. The holiness of God...
May we be living our lives for His glory that He may say to us on that day, "Well done, good and faithful servant."
Be unto Your name
by Lynn DeShazo and Gary Sadler
We are a moment, You are forever
Lord of the Ages, God before time
We are a vapor, You are eternal
Love everlasting, reigning on high
Chorus:
Holy, holy, Lord God Almighty
Worthy is the Lamb Who was slain
Highest praises, honor and glory
Be unto Your name, be unto Your name
We are the broken, You are the healer
Jesus, Redeemer, mighty to save
You are the love song we'll sing forever
Bowing before You, blessing Your name
