Psalm 49:20 “Mankind, with his assets but without understanding, is like the animals that perish.”
Whew, that verse just hit hard. 😅 It brings to mind another verse Matthew 16:26
“For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world [wealth, fame, success], but forfeits his soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?”
Why do we spend the majority of our hours wrapped up in the temporal? Why not look up today & seek the eternal? And maybe you’re thinking….literally look up? What does seek the eternal mean? If it helps to literally look up, then I say do it, but keep in mind as you do that if He who lives in you has been invited to abide in you then you don’t actually have to look up ~ you go within ~ you get silent & listen to Him, He will speak. Eternal is He who made you & I. He is the beginning & the end ~ He will never change, never leave nor forsake you.
We are here not to serve ourselves, but instead to serve others. We are here not to serve only to serve others to secretly serve ourselves. We are here to serve Him through our thoughts, words, & actions ~ humble obedience to the one that gave us breath. We only are able to work because we’ve been given by Him the ability to do so, so why spend another moment caught up in this world that will only lead you further astray? Come out of darkness & into His marvelous light. 🕊️
