Gal4

The things of this world are "weak and bankrupt". They enslave us to this temporal reality that will soon pass away. 

The gospel sets us free from these temporary things. We are adopted sons of God. Heirs of Christ with a new ability to live for things that are eternal.Yet Paul's concern was that the weak and temporary things of this world would capture our hearts and enslave us again! He was afraid that perhaps his work was wasted! 

If we live today for what doesn't matter, we are wasting our lives. If we live today for the purpose of God, our life will be significant. This is a daily challenge. Don't get caught up in the things that really don't matter. Live for what will last!
