and unsure are our plans.
For the corruptible body burdens the soul
and the earthen shelter weighs down the mind that has many concerns.”
Oh, you want to colonize Mars? Cure cancer? Organize your junk drawer?
God created the universe in between hitting the first and second snooze…and He didn’t even use His iPhone to do it…although He invented that too.

A year ago you lost sleep—for a week—over something you can’t even remember today.
A month ago you were angry at a driver who cut you off on the way to work and you still wish you had flipped him off…five more times.

Stay the course.Keep the faith.Endure.
