All Is Vanity

_Job 1:2_

_And he said: “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, And naked shall I return there. The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; Blessed be the name of the Lord.”_


*All is vanity*


When we came into this world, we were naked and vulnerable. We did not own anything  and had to depend on others for everything. Let us think about this and  thank God whose reign is sovereign over us. His protection surrounds us everyday and even when we face hardships, He is there. When we leave this earth, no matter how much earthly wealth or achievements we have acquired, we cannot take anything with us.


 Holding on to things of this world, maintaining grudges and refusing to help others will not help us when we cross over to the other side. Do good while you are still alive and able. Let go of grudges and evil intentions. The preacher said that it is all vanity of vanities. What matters is that you aim to please God in the time He has given you on this earth so that you may prepare for an abundant eternity in heaven.


*Prayer*

Lord Jesus, thank you for yhe gift of life. Please help me to not hold on to pointless grudges and to unforgiveness. Rid me of all burdens in my heart that may make me miss heaven. Amen
