The Fragility of Life

The fragility of life

Life is so fragile. 

A baby born to this world, cannot do without the care of her parents to feed her. 

A teenager so often gets himself into car accidents or violent fatal fights. 

A young adult not thinking about the sexual diseases he might get infected with sleeps around.

Cancers, terminal diseases pounce on anyone at any age surprisingly.

Natural calamities claim thousands of lives in a moment.

Life is so fragile.

We are only kept living for the next second by the grace and mercy of God. 

We are only protected from the results of our sinful actions by the loving patience of our God.

Life is fragile. You do not know what are the days God has ordained for you.

Trust in Him now. Do not reject Him.

Turn life's fragility into one like a firm fortress. That though the waves of turmoil sweeps around you, you are firm, because you are standing on a solid foundation of rock. 

Submit your lives to God, that it no longer hinges on the fragility and hopelessness of men, but stands upon this eternal rock, of value, of purpose, of a living hope, of eternal life.

Our rock is the Christ, Son of the living God.
