What is Your Life?


"Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow.  What is your life?  You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes."  -James 4:14




James is reminding us not to worry about tomorrow.  Instead he admonishes, "Instead, you ought to say, 'If the Lord is willing, we will live and do this or that.'"  The older one gets the easier it becomes to put one's life in perspective.  When we are young we can get caught up in the minutiae of life.  I still remember someone telling me to not worry that my son wasn't potty trained yet, and to make her point she added, "You can be sure he will be by college."  When we worry about tomorrow we steal joy from today.  But more importantly, God can only be found in the present moment.  This is where we need to live.

I am grateful that God is always present, moment-by-moment.
