It may appear in this day we live that those who are doing wrong are having the time of their life. We may feel that doing the right thing and living for The Lord at times is not worth it. When feeling that way I must remind myself that doing right may not have feelings but doing wrong will always bring feelings of sorrow, shame and guilt. Doing right is always right and it always pleases The Lord; do right at all times!

The saddest words of tongue or pen are these four words - it might have been.
