"When a wicked man dies, his hope perishes; all he expected from his power comes to nothing."
This is a sad commentary on the legacy of a man who lives, as Solomon called it in Ecclesiastes, "under the sun." People whose lives are driven by and bound to this world and the things that they do or acquire in it, find that there is an end. For those whose lives transcend that boundary, and who live for the Lord, hope doesn't perish. It is fulfilled. Hope becomes reality and the little that they brought to the table becomes immeasurable riches in Christ. Don't put your hope in your power, money, acquisitions, or human relationships. Put your hope in Christ that your legacy may be never-ending.
