Philippians 3:10  That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and 
the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; 


Accomplishing this, everything else I want in life will fall into place.

    People want to be happy and free from suffering.
993.9People want a quiet lifeRDGENG::YERKESSbring me sunshine in your smileMon Nov 07 1994 12:5016
 People want happy and content lives, however tbey also want a quiet life 
 free from having to make too many adjustments.

 For this reason, people like to hear the good news for it is message of 
 peace & security. But people fail to respond to it, for it means having
 to make drastic changes in ones life.

 A non Christian Mohandas K. Ghandi made the following telling comment
 to the British viceroy of India "When your country and mine shall get
 together on the teachings laid down by Christ in this Sermon on the 
 Mount, we shall have solved the problems, not only of our countries
 but those of the whole world."
