Life is a Vapor

Yesterday was a bad one for motorists in Springfield. With the snow falling, roads became slippery and dangerous.

One mother with two kids in her SUV lost her life when she lost control of her vehicle and slid off the road and rolled into a large road sign. In an instant, she was here, and the next she was facing eternity.

The tragedy brought back haunting memories of an incident a couple of summers ago that easily could've had the same impact on my family. My wife was involved in a roll over crash not too far from yesterday's wreck. She survived.

Yesterday reminded me of James 4:14. Life is very short, and can end in an instant. All the more reason to live with purpose. Even more reason to live with Jesus as the driving force in your life.
