Christian Thought of the Day

Matt 24:39-42
so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
KJV

Corinthians 13:13

1 Corinthians 13:13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

I think this says it all.

Seems like ol' Garysher should be a street preacher. He would bore a lot of people with his rambling.

I think I'll stick with the Buddhist Thoughts of the Day - they tend to be more enlightening and thought-provoking, and less "you could die any minute"-ish.
