“If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God” (Col 3:1).

“For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a tale that is told” (Ps
90:9).
As I reflect on my pilgrimage of 74 years, this verse becomes more and more real to me. Life is
like a story that is told and even three score and ten years seems so short. The sobering consideration
is “really, what has been done that counts for eternity?” We can easily get caught up in the things of
life that are good and fail to realize the need to “apply our hearts unto wisdom.” Life is serious.
