"For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's."
- Romans 14:8
Dear Friends,
Growing up I often heard the expression from my elders, "keep living." In youth problems seems few. Hearing folks talk about living from paycheck to paycheck seemed like a fairy tale. Aching bones and failing eyesight seemed like an unlikely possibility. Days of not being able to stay up all night and still rise up early in the morning full of energy were laughed at. Yet, my contemporaries and I could hear our parents and others chide us "just keep living."
Having been blessed to still be in the land of the living, I am thankful for bones that ache sometimes. Although, I can't see as clearly as I use to I thank God I can still see.
Whether young or old, whatever station in life you find yourself in...keep living. Live your life in a state of joy and thanksgiving.
"For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's."
- Romans 14:8
Keep living! Living for the Lord!
in Christ,
Sis. Stephanie
