One Solitary Life

Here is a man who was born in an obscure village, the child of a peasant woman. He grew up in another village. He worked in a carpenter shop until He was thirty. Then for three years He was an itinerant preacher.

He never owned a home. He never wrote a book. He never held an office. He never had a family. He never went to college. He never put His foot inside a big city. He never traveled two hundred miles from the place He was born. He never did one of the things that usually accompany greatness. He had no credentials but Himself.

While still a young man, the tide of popular opinion turned against him. His friends ran away. One of them denied Him. He was turned over to His enemies. He went through the mockery of a trial. He was nailed upon a cross between two thieves. While He was dying, His executioners gambled for the only piece of property He had on earth – His coat. When He was dead, He was laid in a borrowed grave through the pity of a friend.

Nineteen long centuries have come and gone, and today He is a centerpiece of the human race and leader of the column of progress.

I am far within the mark when I say that all the armies that ever marched, all the navys that were ever built; all the parliaments that ever sat and all the kings that ever reigned, put together, have not affected the life of man upon this earth as powerfully as has that one solitary life.

Thank you, Liz and the same in return.

Wow, I come back to this thread and see all these deleted posts and wonder to myself, "Why here of all places?"

I don't think I really want to know.

Some people are really warped. Anything about Jesus Christ drives them to desperation.

We had a great one. I hope that you and your family had a great Easter.

I can't lift my right arm very much this morning. It seemed to be attached to a grand child all weekend. (Real tough Duty!:

[Liz]

Sweet. But I hope it wasn't the arm attached to the hand that clicks your mouse.

[Grampa Dave]

I just lift the hand and rest it on the mouse pad.

A dose of Alieve is working quite well.
