Each of us will one day be judged by our standard of life, not by our standard of living; by our measure of giving, not by our measure of wealth; by our simple goodness, not by our seeming greatness.

William Arthur Ward

Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me, has eternal life; he does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.

John 5:24
The Revised Standard Version

While I was visiting a friend, her three-year-old daughter was frequently interrupting her housework by insisting that her mother “come outside and see.”  She would then excitedly show her mother a flower, a butterfly, a broken bird’s egg, or a crawling ant.  After the umpteenth interruption, I commented, “You’re awfully patient with her, but all these little trips must nearly wreck your daily routine.  Don’t you ever just want to scream?”  “Well,” the mother replied cheerfully, “I brought her into the world.  The least I can do is let her show it to me.”
