VANITY

Snippet

But nothin lasts, I guess. Only the love of the Lord. ― Stephen King, The Stand

Scripture

I, the Philosopher, have been king over Israel in Jerusalem. 13 I determined that I would examine and study all the things that are done in this world.
God has laid a miserable fate upon us. 14 I have seen everything done in this world, and I tell you, it is all useless. It is like chasing the wind. 15 You can't straighten out what is crooked; you can't count things that aren't there. Ecclesiastes 1:12-15 GNT

Song
Dust in the Wind by Kansas
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tH2w6Oxx0kQ

I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone
All my dreams pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind
All they are is dust in the wind
Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do crumbles to the ground though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind
all we are is dust in the wind
Oh, ho, ho
Now, don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away, and all your money won't another minute buy
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
Dust in the wind
Everything is dust in the wind
Everything is dust in the wind
The wind

Sentence Prayer

Father, open our eyes to our vanity
Help us see that who won the Voice
Will quickly be forgotten
But your love is all that will last forever
Amen
