to everything there is a season

in time, every somebody becomes a nobody.

doesn't matter if you're the most famous actor of the century -- new actors will push past your glory and into the limelight

doesn't matter if you were a hero your whole life -- everyone you saved will eventually die

doesn't matter if you were the richest man alive -- money doesn't follow you past the grave

but the one thing that withstands time and space is the gospel and its compelling and irresistible message. Jesus receives and will receive all the glory for all of eternity, everyone he saved will never die, and through him we build up our riches in heaven.

thank God for the gospel -- or humanity (and this blog post) would be a hell of a depressing thing
