James 4:14 - The Brevity of Life.

James 4:14 (NLT) How do you know what your 
life will be like tomorrow? Your life is like the 
morning fog - its here a little while, then 
its gone.  

INTRODUCTION

Life is short no matter how many years we 
live. Don't be deceived into thinking that you 
have lots of remaining time to live for Christ, 
to enjoy your loved ones, or to do what you 
know you should. Live for God today! Then, no 
matter when your life ends, you will have fulfilled 
God's plan for you. [Life Application SB] 

COMMENTARY PEARL

   Several years ago a university student 
asked me what had been my biggest surprise in 
life. Immediately I replied, "The brevity of 
life." Almost before we know it, the years have 
passed and life is almost over. 
   On one hand, life's brevity should 
challenge us. If ever we are to live for Christ and 
share Him with others, it must be now. Jesus said, 
"The night is coming when no one can work" (John 
9:4). 
   But life's brevity should also comfort 
us. Life is short - and before us is eternity! 
When sufferings overwhelm us or difficulties 
assail us we know they will soon be over. Paul 
wrote, "Our light affliction, which is but for a 
moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and 
eternal weight of glory.... For the things which are 
seen are temporary" (2 Cor. 4:17-18). 
   Don't live as if this life will continue 
forever. It won't. Live instead with eternity in 
view! [Hope for Each Day by Billy Graham]
