About this listen

 What would you think of one who should build a beautiful house and then destroy it, or paint a lovely picture and then tear it to pieces? Have you never thought that this is the way God is doing? He makes, to destroy. Nothing seems to long remain the same. He clothes the trees with leaves, but within a few months strips them off. He makes the tiny bud and develops it into the beautiful flower, but the flower is no sooner in bloom than it begins to wither and fade. It seems to be so with everything in nature. It starts out, grows in beauty, and then is destroyed. Why should such loveliness be wasted? And God deals in much the same way with us. He gives us joy after joy, but each one soon passes away, never to return. The bright, sunny day is soon gone, or changed to a cloudy one. The glorious sunset fades into the darkness and gloom of night. You enjoy yourself at the concert or in some other way, but the hour soon passes. Each meeting with friends is followed by a parting. You draw many a sigh as your joys or the joys of others depart, and bitter tears may sometimes flow because the day that is just past will never return, and the joys you have had cannot again be yours. You study hard at school to acquire an education. Afterwards you find employment and all looks bright for a time. But sickness comes, or perhaps a labor panic, you lose your situation, and then you may even go hungry. You try to save money to build yourself a home and furnish it. Reverses overtake you, and your money or your home is gone. Even though you succeed for a while, sooner or later you are snatched from that which you enjoy, or your joys are taken from you. You gather friends about you; loved ones nestle by your side. But one and another are taken away from you — parents and little ones, brothers and sisters, are parted; none are safe. You may be almost broken-hearted because of your losses, and you are bowed down with the weight of sorrow. Then, too, you yourself change. Free and joyous childhood gives place to manhood and old age. At last you are gone. What does it all mean? Christian Living Christianity Devotionals
