MORNING MANNA 3-19-24
Over the triple doorways of a European Cathedral, there are three inscriptions spanning the splendid arches.
Over one is carved a beautiful wreath of roses, and underneath is the lettering:
“All which pleases us — is but for a moment.”
Over the other arch is sculptured a cross, and there are the words:
“All which troubles us — is but for a moment.”
But on the great central entrance to the main aisle, is the inscription:
“That alone is important, which is eternal.”
If we always realize these three truths, we would not let trifles trouble us;
nor would we be so much interested in the passing pageants of the hour.
We would live, as we do not now — for the permanent and the eternal.
This world and everything in it shall pass away. We can live successfully only if we live in the light of eternity.HDS
