Mark 13:1
We are easy to impress aren’t we? The existence of a building is not nearly as grand as the permanence of it. How many grand structures have been torn down and trodden under? The many wonders of the ancient world are all but graveyards now. It is not the grandeur of our buildings, but the longevity that Holy Providence allows to them that really shows us greatness. And even then, that greatness may not be rooted in righteousness. He has allowed many buildings that stand for evil causes to stand for some time.
Heavenly Father, how can we neglect to awe over you and give so much credit to man? All of our accomplishments are something only if they have your blessing. You decide if the playwrite is remembered. You determine if art hangs long on the walls of time. You measure the life of a poem or the effectiveness of a novel. Only you can make a song sing forever. You are the Master Artist, and your creation is the greatest story ever told. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise you, Amen.
