Ecclesiastes 1:4
"One generation passeth away, and another
generation cometh: but the earth
abideth for ever."
The time of our enjoyment of life here is very short. We continue in the world but for one generation, which is continually passing away to make room for another, and we are passing with it. Our worldly possessions we very lately had from others, and must very shortly leave to others, and therefore to us they are vanity.
We give God the glory of the constant succession of generations, in which the world has its existence, and will till the end of time. We see daily God's patience with the sinfulness of this world and the species of it. We must do the work of our generation diligently, and serve it faithfully, because it will be over shortly; and, in concern for mankind in general, we should consult the welfare of succeeding generations. But as to our own happiness, let us not expect it within such narrow limits, However; eternal rest awaits those who know Jesus Christ as their personal Saviour. All ends have a new beginning, I pray that when that time comes and it will, yours will be in Heaven with Jesus Christ Our Lord.
Amen!
