Signs Of Heaven

Have you noticed how so many song-composers seem to just “run dry” when they get older? You would think that they would only get better through having tasted so much of life’s ups and downs!

.

But just the opposite is true!

.

But hey, this all seems to go well with this youth-worshiping world we now live in! Yes, our society definitely caters to the young and strong and beautiful!

.

But actually, the world is fulfilling Bible prophecy, whether they know it or not!

.

Listen to Scripture…A voice says, “Cry!”
    And I said,^[c] “What shall I cry?”
All flesh is grass,
    and all its beauty^[d] is like the flower of the field.
⁷ The grass withers, the flower fades
    when the breath of the Lord blows on it;
    surely the people are grass.
⁸ The grass withers, the flower fades,
    but the word of our God will stand forever.

Yes, the Word of Truth reveals that man’s glory is like the flower of the field. It flourishes for a little while, and then it withers and eventually dies. And so it is with so many music artists. They are young and fresh and so is their music.

.

But just like the well which eventually runs dry, so do their careers! No longer can they compose all those fresh songs. Their beauty fades like the proverbial flower of the field.

Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine. 1st Timothy 5:17
