What’s the point of a life that goes so fast and ends so quickly?
Scientist once thought that the vertebrate with the shortest life span was the turquoise killifish. This small fish lives in seasonal rain pools in equatorial Africa and must complete its life cycle in 12 weeks before the pools disappear. But researches from Australia have now four that the pygmy goby has even shorter lifespan. It lives fast and dies young. This tiny fish lives in coral reefs for an average of 56 days. Its rapid reproductive cycle is designed to help it avoid extinction.
Significance is not found in the number of our days, but in what our eternal God says about how we have used them.
