On Earthly Adventures

On Earthly Adventures

So if we have a desire to climb a mountain or sail a sea and we give up our home and family and friends to pursue our adventure saying to ourselves, “If I don’t go now, I may never go and I want to go”, what is the action to us.  For if we believe in the resurrection and in eternity, then it doesn’t matter if we go now or not for it will be there for us to do or it will not be important to do; and if we don’t believe in the resurrection, then whether we do it or not, we will die and it won’t matter then if dead is dead…..And if we don’t believe in the resurrection, then why are we here on earth.  If we are only here by chance, then nothing matters, not us or those we “love”, or those we hate or the things we have unless we believe that because we are here by chance, we should make the most of the pleasures we find in our treasures, as we can take none with us when we die.

So, grace and peace to us who believe.  And faith, hope and love are our past, present and future.
