Let's do a little bit of time traveling, shall we? With our minds of course. Man is looking for a time traveling machine when God has given him one for 'He
has put eternity into man's heart..' (Ecc 3:11)
So, lay back down and think, project into the future, say about 50 years from now, what do you see?
Will Aliko Dangote still be here and would he still be the richest man in Africa?
And Bill gates? Mark Zuckerberg? Jay Z? Beyonce?
What of Obasanjo, Atiku, Buhari? Where will they be?
Will they still be pursuing power? Your favorite Nollywood celebrities nko?
Eh..Kim Kardashian, the woman nearly every woman wants to be, what will she look like if she was still alive by then? What of all her beauty, fame, power, money,
figure 8? Add 50 to her present age, what do you see? Will botox, butt and breast enlargement keep her from the inevitable?
Okay, let's not go far. Look at you, where would you be? Here or elsewhere?
Can u proudly look back and say yes, I have fulfilled purpose?
What
I want to say is this: it will all fade, wither and die (money, beauty, power) so why spend all your life pursuing wind, things that don't last? Why idolize vanity when they are here today and gone tomorrow?
Who or what do you spend your time and money on? It will tell you where your heart is...think about this.
Summary: Put God first for what is here today may not be here tomorrow. 50 years is even too far. Think about tomorrow.
