Worldly Things are Disappointing and Perishing
John 6:26-27
Jesus answered them and said, Truly, truly, I say to you, You seek me, not because you saw the miracles…


The fashion of this world passeth away, as the water of a river that runs by a city, or as a fair picture drawn upon the ice that melts away with it. Men come to the world's felicities as to a lottery, with heads full of hopes, but return with hearts full of blanks.

(J. Trapp.)
