Spring Flees Quickly
<<First Name>>, looks like we’re going to have another typical Mississippi spring. And you know the typical Mississippi spring don’t you? Yeah, it lasts about one week, then summer hits and last for six months! The spring flowers pop up one day and then, it seems, they’re gone, just as fast as they appeared.
As we get older, the years seem to last about as long as the Mississippi spring. One year pops up and, it seems it’s gone just as fast. Before we know it, those years have escaped us and we wonder where they’ve gone. Makes up really consider what the Bible tells us in James: "How do you know what your life will be like tomorrow? Your life is like the morning fog—it’s here a little while, then it’s gone." (James 4:14).
Life goes by fast. What are you doing with yours?
