"Seek and ye shall find, ask & ye shall receive, knock, & the door shall be opened." Matt 7:8
"Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you". James 4:8
If you look for good you will find it, if you look for what is not, you will find that too. If go around doing good to others and loving them then others will do good to you, if you go around doing wrong and causing problems, then that it what you'll receive, if you have nothing and dread life,it is because that is what you've given, if you don't like it, change it. I used to be a negative person, always looking at the glass of water as "half empty",what's missing, what's wrong, is this all there is" attitude, til' someone pointed this out to me. They said"You know Michelle,life is what you make it. Being happy or being miserable is a choice" Even my husband says "If you don't like the color of your house--paint it!" There is sooooo much more to life than just existing. There' living! There's being thankful and looking forward to each new day versus feeling full of dread and hopelessness. Because it's true,whether you're living right or doing nothing at all, you do get what you asked for, what you choose to do or say to others really does come back to you, the same way you dished it out. good or bad, it may take years as it did me, but it ALWAYS comes back. and if you never knock--the door to life remains closed to you.
Everything we do whether it good things or bad things, is multiplied and given back, in the same measure we used, will be given back to us.
"He who lays down his own life for My sake, shall find it, but whoever holds onto his own life, will lose it"--Jesus†
"In everything, do to others what you'd have them do to you"

Enjoy the day, promises are rarely as good as what you already have. Don`t hide your head in myth and superstition, that is the way to waste reality. `All there is` , is more than enough. Use ALL 48 ounces ! Be happy.

what each person has is but a starting place for what you wish to do with your life - one could stay in a specific spot for life or move on in search of better things - this life is what each and everyone of us makes of it. AMEN~!

You mean this life? No. This is very short compared to all of eternity.
