Circle of Trust

I shared with the PAX an except from a Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren:

“While life on Earth offers many choices, eternity offers only two: heaven or hell.”

Here’s that reminder, when going through more challenging times or experiences…the Purple Haze in life if you will…to work to make the best choices you can to get through it. As when it’s all over, you’re going one of two ways.

Prayers.
