Amidst the transience of life, as symbolized by the skull and hourglass in this Vanitas still life, humility is a powerful reminder of our place in the grand scheme.

Even the mighty Nebuchadnezzar was humbled by God. Today, we too can learn from these examples, as we witness the sun's rays humbly illuminating a simple fishing boat on the Pacific Ocean.
