 True?

This is my creed: For man the vast marvel is to be alive. For man as for flower and beast and bird the supreme triumph is to be most vividly, most perfectly alive. Whatever the unborn and the dead may know they cannot know the beauty, the marvel of being alive in the flesh. The dead may look after the afterward. But the magnificent here and now of life in the flesh is ours alone, and ours only for a time. We ought to dance with rapture that we should be alive and in the flesh and part of the living incarnate cosmos.

Acts 10:  You know what has happened all over Judea, beginning in Galilee after the baptism that John preached, how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power.
Colossians 3:  If then you were raised with Christ, seek what is above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.
John 20:  They have taken the Lord from the tomb, and we don’t know where they put him.

It is the way we measure our riches that will determine the quality of our lives.
