Steem Church ; All is Vanity

Vanity of vanities, says the preacher, vanity of vanity;all is vanity (Ecc 1:2,12:8). Have you ever thought that someday you would leave this world and none of your possessions which you habe labored so much for would go with you?. Many great people have died and as with all men, they departed with nothing. Dust we are, unto dust we shall return (Gen 3:19). These are similar words spoken 2 us on ash Wednesday.

Philosophers and Professors die and are buried like other men with all their degrees, awards and achievements left behind. We have seen very powerful presidents and senators who died in power leave the world with nothing and are buried the same way with other people who are peasants.

There are many who got so much money in their lifetime that they could have bought life if it were possible but on the day the Lord called them, they left without a penny. Brethren we came into this world temporarily and surely all the things of the world will pass away someday.

Unfortunately, many have gone to eternity unprepared. Some just woke up already planning for the rest of the day and their future not knowing that would be the day that the Lord would call. Then shall the dust return to the earth from where it came and the spirit unto God who gave it(Ecc 12:7.

Brethren, when your turn comes to depart this world, will your spirit be received by God or will you be condemned to eternal damnation?. The way we spend our lives on earth would determine our afterlife. God has given us life but it is our choice whether to serve him or not. Choose wisely. If you are living in sin, amend your ways as tomorrow might be too late.
Happy Sunday and have a blessed week ahead.
