Ecclesiastes 1:  For what profit comes to man from all the toil and anxiety of heart with which he has labored under the sun?

Colossians 3:  For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.    When Christ your life appears, then you too will appear with him in glory.

Luke 12:  “Take care to guard against all greed, for though one may be rich, one’s life does not consist of possessions.”

                              

                                                                   

 

Never fear periods of darkness in life. They are the atrium to new phases of life, the threshold to new experience, the invitation to move on from where you are to where there is more for you to learn.

From one of our special people, Jamie Wilson:

The Sjogren's Syndrome Foundation is hosting a fundraising and educational event May 15th @ the Grapevine Mills Mall. The money they receive is used for research and patient/physician education. I have created a website for friends/family to donate. It is www.firstgiving.com/jaimiewilson.

 

True?

 

We cannot put off living until we are ready. The most salient characteristic of life is its urgency, “here and now” without any possible postponement. Life is fired at us point blank.
