In this lesson, You Will Be Missed, we learn, Absalom built a great monument for himself. He built it in the valley of the kings and never made it. Today, we find, that the world and the Church are full of Absalom's. They never live up to their calling or ambition. They build huge monuments with their words but their deeds are never called to action. Life is filled with people like Absalom.  We need to make sure that we do not fall into that category. 

Because the Bible is just as applicable now as it was when it was first written, we can find answers to the deepest questions of life and faith in it. There must be a purpose to our physical and spiritual lives. Find some noble goal to pursue with your life.  Certainly the Lord is coming back but we must live our lives like He is coming today but plan like He is returning 100 years from now.
