Not a recipe this time, but none the less a great thought by a girl from Fort Worth - not me, I am not this eloquent. I love what it reminds me of and am posting it more for myself than anything.

What really matters?

Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and the vanisheth away. James 4:14

What does matter after all? ... What are the truths upon which all human life may rest with confidence? Fortunately they are not many. Here are the chief ones:
1. Only God is great...
2. Only God is wise...
3. Apart from God nothing matters. We think that health matters, that freedom matters, or knowledge or art or civilization. And but for one insistent word they would matter indeed. That word is eternity.

Grant that men possess perpetual being, and the preciousness of every earthly treasure is gone instantly. God is to our eternal being what our heart is to our body. The lungs, the liver, the kidneys have value as they relate to the heart. Let the heart stop and the rest of the organs promptly collapse. Apart from God, what is money, fame, education, civilization? Exactly nothing at all, for men leave all these things behind them and one by one go to eternity. Let God hide His face and nothing thereafter is worth the effort.

4. Only what we do in God will remain to us at last...
