Vanity of Vanities
We all have put on our shoes, guarding our heel,
But, do we know of the journey's end?
Let alone the breath we feel,
Allow me to confess to you, my friend.
.
All steps taken speed forward, towards the grave,
Nothing that you've had was ever yours, no matter how much you've paid.
There is no addition, neither is there gain,
For everything will leave you once you step out of that grace.
.
Material is vanity. Nothing is meant to last.
But, made purposely to be broken,
Until provision is outside of your grasp.
.
Make peace with your Creator,
For creation exists, solely because of Him,
For nothing lasts forever,
It will be taken on a whim.
