There are several scriptures that remind us that life is really short and the truth is that it might be shorter than we think. For instance, James 4:13-16 says it this way: “Come now, you who say, ‘Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit’ Yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.”
