Life Goes On

Like my father told me, “If it’s not one thing, it’s another.” What he meant was that life is going to hand me my share of trials and tribulations. Sometimes there is meaning in these events, and sometimes, I believe, they are simply random occurrences. In all, I think we are best to remember the Scripture, “Consider how the wild flowers grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these” (Luke 12:27). Why worry and fret about these daily inconveniences? This will not add anything to your life.
