Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. James 4:14 NIV Whenever we spray a fragrance, the mist fills the air and the fragrance fills the room, but it is temporary. This is an example of our lives. Our life is a vapor. It is short. Live your life with purpose in such a way that it brings glory and honor to God. Be Kind; show love and compassion.

Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me. Isaiah 49:16 KJV When I was in middle school, we would write the name of the boy that we liked in our hands. It didn’t mean anything, it was just something to do. But God says that He has written our names in the palms of His hands. This is love. Even more importantly, he was pierced in His hands. So, when we belong to Christ, we are super special to Him.

Fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. Hebrews 12:2 NIV Did you ever play darts? The goal of the game is to get as close as you can to the target. Whenever you hit the target, your score would increase. For the believer, Jesus is our target. We are to stay focused on the target, which will keep us steady and balanced when things around us seem to be falling apart. This is a reminder for me to focus my faith on the source and not on the circumstances.
