The struggle to achieve permanence. It is the battle between the desire for things to remain as they are…and the destructive forces of passing time.
People pursue exercise routines. Why? They hope to stave off the effects of aging. So much in your life is spent trying to defer the negative effects of passing time.
But here is the answer. John wrote – “The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever.”
This world is not your home – you’re just passing through. There is nothing in this life that is permanent. It is like sand…leaking through your fingers.
So…ask God to give you strength for this uncertain journey. And rest in the confidence of your eternal hope.
Do the will of God. That has permanence.
