Vanity, vanity, vanity…

We are living in the world full of vanities. This is a world where in what you wear matters the most. A world where principles always falls on the interest of who is famous. Principles which are always not inline with what is good and just. During the days of our grandparents, clothes are like from head to toe literally without exaggeration. Today, clothing companies seem to have a fabric shortage and due to that shortage their clothes are becoming more and more daring. What about jewelries? Yes they’re still present and expensive. Many people said that diamonds are girls’ best friend. And on cosmetics? Among these things, cosmetics got the highest advancement nowadays. You want to look young, it’s easy. You are fat, as easy as ABC. You are not as white as a paper, no problem. And now, if you want to become a girl or a boy, not in your dreams ’cause it’s now within your reach. All of these things are reachable if you have the guts or much known as money.

These are all vanities, things which cause us to live the different way. Different from the way our grandparents used to live before. These are the things that cause us to become different not only in our way of life but also in the way we look at ourselves.

Vanity sets the standard of what is beautiful. It sets the standard of what is good and what is bad. It sets the standard of living. Let me tell you this, all these things will only lead you to frustrations, never ending frustrations. Why? Simple, ’cause these things doesn’t offer everlasting happiness. Sad to think but that’s the ugly truth behind the so called ‘beauty.’

May I tell you this; you can live a different life if you choose to do so. It’s your decision how you want to live your life here on this planet. Happiness always depends on how satisfied you are not on how beautiful you or your clothes are.

We can only find this happiness when we have a genuine satisfaction, which we can only get from one source. And that is Jesus. His love, His comfort, His hope and His power are the only source of everlasting happiness, happiness which is not only enough but more than enough. This happiness is not just sufficient here in this life but also after this. You don’t need those expensive vanities; all you need is Jesus. Just Him no more, no less. Friend this is for free. You don’t have to pay for this because He already paid this when he died on the cross. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, so that anyone who will believe in Him will not perish but will have an eternal life.(John 3:16)

Just give your life to Him. And He will make you the happiest man alive on this planet. Just trust Him and He will never fail you.
