You frighten me, when you say there isn't time.
You frighten me, when you say there isn't time.
You frighten me, when you say there isn't time.
You frighten me, when you say there isn't time.
About This Quote

While it's true that Christians have been expecting the imminent end of the world for millennia, it wasn't always because of a belief in biblical prophecy. The first Christians were persecuted by the Romans, and they believed their own lives could be snuffed out at any moment. So, they spent time reading their Bibles, praying, and thinking about how to survive. Then, after years of persecution, they finally saw their freedoms come back to them - only to have the persecution resume once more.

That's how it is with life. Some days are better than others, but if you're willing to do whatever it takes to get the most out of each day, then you'll be okay.
