Where are the people?
Where?
Are they but shadows in the mall?
Are they?
Are they shadows in time,
Shadows wandering looking for the latest trinkets, bobbles or beads.
What is life?
What?
Is life but a wisp of smoke carried in the air?
A wisp in the eternal aether ?
Are people wisps of smoke?
What of man’s....
or woman’s! accomplishments?
What of them?
Is the sum total of all ones life simply a pile of shinny tin, brass, and wood?
Is that life?
Is life simply a cacophony of sounds travelling through endless time?
Are we simply the corporeal high end of the evolutionary scale?
Or
Is a life.
Yours, mine more?
Is it a divine opera?
An opera played out on a high mesa
A stage suspended between heaven and hell.
Are we as Shakespear said simply actors?
I think
Life is an opera played out before God.
On a high mesa between heaven and hell.
We Are but actors in a play?
Actors awaiting the final curtain call sending us to eternity?
Are you ready for that final curtain call?
Are you?
What is the sum total of your life?
What?
What will “they” say about you as you pass on?
What will God say to you?
The Prophet Isaiah said,“A voice says, “Cry out.” And I said, “What shall I cry?”
“All men are like grass,and all their glory is like the flowers of the field.
The grass withers and the flowers fall, because the breath of the LORD blows on them.
Surely the people are grass.
The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God stands forever.”
Isaiah 40:6-8
Where will you spend eternity.
Will you spend eternity with God?
Jesus said,
... “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
John 14:6
He also said,
“Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me.”
Revelations 3:20.
Jesus is waiting for you to ask him into your life. Will you consider it today.
Think about it.
