About This Quote

God invites us to start and continue each day with Him. I have found it wise to accept His request. There are many people who, when the moment they wake up is the moment they will die, wish for death rather than life. They believe that life is full of pain and struggle, so if they could just disappear, everything would be okay.

What they fail to realize is that God wants them to live for their own benefit. He wants them to live in order to experience joy and happiness. He also wants them to live in order to help others.
