A little over a year ago, a friend and groom from one of my 2011 weddings passed away suddenly and tragically. He was 28. Last night, a 2013 grad that i photographed one year ago passed away in an accident.... and today, I read this:
"Living knowing that your life is a vapor is different than just living. Things here are passing away. You've got to hold on to what will stand. Savor what matters. Life Is Short. Eternity Is Long. Live Like It."
I am reminded yet again of how short life is, how hard life can be and what a gift each breath is. It is a gift from God and one we should not take lightly or for granted. John Piper's quote above is a HUGE reminder...we need to live for the eternity, not our short, earthly lives. This means constantly reevaluating and reflecting upon where my treasure lies and Who my hope rests in.
