Mortality and the Eternal

"For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:
But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you." I Peter 1: 24-25  --KJV

Shelly, exactly so. Eternal Truth, the Anchor in this tempestuous world.

The immortal reaching out to the ephemeral...is there anything more profound and beautiful?

Jacquelineand: In that reaching out, He spanned the chasm separating us from eternal life, now ours for the grasping!

Interesting post side by side with the jewel heist!

Shark, juxtaposition accidental; yet even such gems as men find desirable are perishable, while the Word of God is not!
