“Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away.”  James 4:14

This morning at 7:55 a.m. EDT the Cassini planetary space probe entered Saturn’s atmosphere and promptly disintegrated and vaporized. No one on earth saw it happen directly, and relatively few paid any attention to it at all. And even those of us who were paying attention had to wait more than an hour for the digital evidence to reach us on planet Earth verifying Cassini’s fourteen year dance with the gas giant was finally over.

Famous’ life has been revolving around my life now for nine and a half years, and it could easily be four or five years more making our relationship as long as the one mankind ordained for Cassini and Saturn. His life will one day cease, but the difference is I will be there to observe it first hand.

Just as Cassini has been teaching its international team of creators and sponsors so much more than was ever known about Saturn, so Famous has been teaching me about life, God, and myself. Although it is an impossible task to constantly be with Famous, it is always a mission of mine to return to him as soon as possible, like Cassini’s fantastic geometrical loops around the ringed Saturn. For I know one day my life will finally be over, and my demise will signal my return to my heavenly home.

I pray the power of the Holy Spirit will continue to pull me back in a closer walk with Thee.
