“All flesh is grass, and all their glory like the flower of the field.
The grass withers, the flower wilts,
when the breath of the LORD blows upon it. So then, the people is the grass.
Though the grass withers and the flower wilts, the word of our God stands forever.” (Isaiah 40: 6 - 7 NABRE)
If you are like myself, you seek and appreciate some stability in life. Have you been able to find it in anything? A new car quickly goes out of fashion. A new home becomes creaky. The beauty and innocence of the little child turns into a vicious teenager. "Vanity of vanities, says the Preacher, vanity of vanities! All is vanity." (Ecclesiastes 1: 2)
The grass may wither and the flowers wilt, but we are certain that the word of God will never change.
Come O Morning Star.
