What are you chasing after in life?
Money,
Youth,
Popularity
Health
And what about Time, the most fleeting of all.
Will you ever catch any of them.
No!
It is all fleeting away
It all passes away.
That is why to chase after them is vanity.
Money is Vanity as everything costs more tomorrow
Youth is vanity as everyday you wake up you are one day older.
Health is vanity as the body is alway breaking down or aching somewhere
And popularity is vanity as someone comes along who has stolen the spotlight.
And time is vanity, always slipping away.
So what is a person to do?
Seek what is above
Where Christ is seated.
Seek what is above not what is on earth.
Seek first the kingdom of Heaven!
Because everything you gather here will be left behind.
Not a single thing will go with you when you die.
So why chase after it.
It will all be left behind to someone else.
And when you die God is not going to ask how much money did you make.
One how beautiful or popular were you.
For In Heaven we will all be rich beyond compare.
We will all be loved endlessly
There will be no more growing oll
We will be eternally young.
So why chase after anything in this world
When everything you want is yours for free in the Kingdom of Heaven.
