The Vapor of Life

How sweet it is! Yes, the smell of autumn as we approach the holidays. Thanksgiving is a favorite of mine. It's not necessarily the turkey and all the trimmings. It's the gathering of family and friends together. As much as it's been the brunt of many a joke or skit, truly it's a special time.

Alright, so as father time moves on with no mercy, I've come to recognize the value of moments like Thanksgiving. Most people don't gather together with family and/or friends enough. Society has promoted and become more of an individualistic society. People aren't as welcoming to others anymore and it's understandable the way people are treating each other. The loss of respect and value of life has torn our communities apart from one another. We close ourselves off in fear.

Oh, Lord Jesus, please come. Come now by your Spirit to bring peace and to bring power to your children. Come by your Word that your presence would be real and that the world would know you. Come, just come, return again.

My life is a vapor, may it be a vapor that brings honor and praise to the one true God... Lord Jesus Christ.
