JESUS IS LORD. ALWAYS!

If you were raised with Christ, seek what is above.

“Vanity  of vanities,” says the Preacher;
“Vanity of vanities, all is vanity.”  (Ecclesiastes 1: 2 NKJV)

What does Scripture mean when it teaches that everything is meaningless apart from God?  I find a lot of comfort in the wisdom of St Teresa of Avila below:

" Let nothing trouble you,
let nothing frighten you.
All things are passing;
God never changes.
Patience obtains all things.
He who possesses God lacks nothing: God alone suffices."  (St Teresa of Avila)

Lord teach us how short life is so that we can become wise.  (Psalm 90: 12)
