Today, I was reminded of something that I have known for a long time. Life is short. Love Apple or not, it's hard to deny Steve Jobs was a brilliant and successful man who gave us so much.
Back in the early '80s I bought my first computer, an Apple IIc. Since then I've owned many PC's including HP, Gateway and Dell. I returned to Apple products several years ago with an iPod. Now I'm the proud owner of an iPod, iPad, iMac, iPhone, and iTouch. I love my Apple "stuff" and couldn't imagine living without it.
But, having a lot of "stuff" doesn't mean you're living. Certainly there are things that can make your life more comfortable and enjoyable, but when you're life is done, the things remain and you're gone. Money, success and things can't make you happy or help you live longer.
Steve Jobs left quite a legacy. When my life is over, what will I leave? Things?
Since we don't know God's plan for us, we have to make sure our priorities are right and that we are living the life He intended for us to live. Be faithful and truly put God above all other things and He will pour blessings on your life, family, desires and dreams. Now those are things worth living for.
