WRAP IT UP

“…The race is not to the swift or the battle to the strong, nor does food come to the wise or wealth to the brilliant or favor to the learned; but time and chance happen to them all.” Ecclesiastes 911 So why is it that we scurry about the entirety of our few minutes here on this earth seeking favor and approval and position? Attempting to meet a long list of obligations and expectations that never seem to be satisfied no matter how much we busy ourselves. Working out, studying hard, eating right, investing wisely, and somehow time and chance happens to us all? Why? That’s a good question. No matter how we have started out this year, regardless of what has happened along the way, despite the turns and falls and outright mistakes. If you have fallen, get back up. Though a righteous man may fall seven times he gets back up. God gives power to the weak; and to them that have no might he increases strength. There is great mercy and forgiveness with God. All His paths are mercy and truth t
