But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith the LORD. – Jeremiah 9:24
The iPad. Lady Gaga’s meat dress. Whoop them Gangnam style. Not the end of the world on December 21st, 2012. Prince William marries Kate Middleton. The ice bucket challenge. The dress (definitely black and blue…or was it white and gold?). Obama is the first black President in the White House. Kevin Spacey, Harvey Weinstein and #metoo. Donald Trump becomes President. Prince Harry marries Meghan Markle. Self-driving cars. Drones. Michael Jackson, Whitney and James Brown died. Amazon and Apple become the first $1 trillion companies. Pomplamoose. Hamilton. Scary Pockets. The Dark Knight trilogy. Arab spring. Tesla. Space X. Missions to Mars.
Just some of the many “mainstream headline” and “famous on the Internet” moments from the decade of 2010-2019.
And this isn’t counting any of the personal victories, losses and milestones you’ve experienced in the last decade.
But regardless of what did or didn’t make the news in your own life…and regardless of what resolutions those around you will be making for the upcoming year…remember this:
Your relationship with Jesus and your knowledge of who you are in Him are what really matter.
Everything else is merely a fancy sandcastle waiting to be washed away by the passage of time.
