"You do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life?
It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes
away" (James 4:14).
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. This collection of thirty-one
articles is full of that heart-longing after Christ that
distinguishes Piper's preaching ministry. Readers will feel as
though they have stumbled into a garden as they enter these pages.
The Scripture cuts, Christ is exalted in God, and we worship Him.
Life Is Short. Eternity Is Long. Live Like It.
You will exist forever. You and God are both in the universe to
stay--either as friends on His terms, or enemies on yours--which it
will be is proven in this life. And this life is a vapor. Two
seconds, and we will be gone.
In these thirty-one meditations, John Piper will connect you to a
fresh understanding of God and a renewed relationship with Him.
You'll find your faith stirred to make every day count for Christ
when you consider life as a vapor.
Story Behind the Book
Time is precious. We are fragile. Life is short. Eternity is long.
Every minute counts. Oh, to be a faithful steward of the breath God
has given me. Three texts resound in my ears: "Redeem the time"
(Ephesians 5:16 ); "It is required of stewards that one be found
trustworthy" (1 Corinthians 4:2); "His grace toward me was not in
vain; but I labored even more than all of them, yet not I, but the
grace of God with me" (1 Corinthians 15:10 ).
Surely God means for our minutes on earth to count for something
significant. Paul said, "In the day of Christ I will have reason to
glory because I did not run in vain nor toil in vain" (Philippians
2:16). In the same way, I have good hope from the Lord that my
"labor is not in vain in the Lord" (1 Corinthians 15:58 ).
