This is a life filled with both pleasure and pain, but it is guaranteed to be one that is rich, full and rewarding. Today He continues to hold out the promise of an abundant life to you and me. Eternal Life is for us now. It is full of love, peace and joy, but there is a price. The main requirement is that it must be shared.
True happiness is in giving, even in sacrificing.
Jesus found the greatest joy of all in giving His Life for humanity. His disciples are called to give their lives away in many ways also. By this means, they too can experience abundant life. You do have a right to be happy, for Jesus purchased that right for you with His own blood. He demonstrated the truth of it every day before everyone, and His followers found their own happiness in the sharing of His Life with others.
