Today’s Thought “Christmas: Fifteen Days Away?” G. Ward

James 4

¹³ Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit.” ¹⁴ Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. For you are just a vapor that appears for a little while, and then vanishes away. ¹⁵ Instead, you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that.” 

 

How can any prepare for very sorrowful disruptions to their lives on their own volition (cf. John 14:27)? Have any been created for a life in self-sufficiency; particularly when no one can determine on whether there’s to be a next moment? Moreover, how can any witness some - so devout in their faith through Christ; to then decide they also know HIM because they’re familiar with numerous passages (in HIS Word) and are basically good people (cf. *Ro.3:10,23) and besides that, didn’t God give us a brain to figure things out for ourselves (cf. Prov.3:5-6)?

Just asking for a friend – who need not rely on any answer outside of where Truth exists (Prov.2:3-6). Seek SHELTER, while HE can be found (He’s not lost, but…)!
