There are two important days in our life. The day we are born and the
day we die. Everything in between doesn't amount to a hill of beans
and is quickly forgotten . All living things are conceived by seed or
spores and nature supplies and over abundance of seed to insure that
one will survive. The same holds true in our own creation from a
single cell and one sperm. We have to realize we were the strongest
sperm in that race to creation. The same applies to the Christian
belief of salvation and the acceptance of a Messiah who gives hope
meaning to a beastly existence in the secular world. The "Book"
tells us of this principle in the parable of the mustard seed where
only a few would find fertile ground and the rest, history. Also the
phrase "Many are called, few are chosen". So it is with the choice
and chance of salvation and I believe God chooses us. For those of us
who don't experience salvation or can't understand the concept,
nothing lost, just seed that withered and died in spirit. We are all
born without promises or guarantees but a chance for eternal life which
justifies all the unanswered questions. Dr Chung has experienced this
and is jubilant in spreading "The good News"........
Ossama bin Laden undoubtedly feels the same way about his relationship
"god", and how he was chosen to spread "god's word".

Prayer
5"And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray
standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I
tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. 6But when you
pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is
unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
7And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they
will be heard because of their many words. 8Do not be like them, for your
Father knows what you need before you ask him.
