Life Lesson In Fifteen Minutes

Ok, so maybe I am a dumb blonde. But, the keys which I COULD NOT FIND after an hour of searching, were right between the seats of my car.
I SWEAR ON MY GRANDMOTHER'S GRAVE THEY WERE NOT THERE WHEN I LOOKED.
Since someone had to drop me off this morning with my spare key, that left me a good half hour before the office would be open and an hour before I actually had to work.
Just in case you haven't noticed the glum and depressing posts enmasse, that suffice to say as of late, life has been rather stressful and taxing. I was reading the Psalms, and managed, with another blonde miscalculation, to end up reading Psalm 39. And I was reminded, that even if I am TRYING to do great things, if I am doing them without Christ all is in vain. All the stressing, tears, hard work and sacrifice, even with the most good intentions, without Christ it will be in vain.
"LORD, let me know my end, and what is the measure of my days; let me know how fleeting my life is! Behold, thou hast made my days a few handbreadths, and my lifetime is as nothing in thy sight. Surely every man stands as a mere breath! Surely man goes about as a shadow! Surely for nought are they in turmoil; man heaps up, and knows not who will gather
Some are a little slow on the uptake to learn our lessons, but, God loves slow people too.
And now, Lord, for what do I wait? My hope is in thee.
