“In the Middle Ages, what people feared, is what we want. They feared the sudden death. And they feared the sudden death because they wanted to have time to be reconciled with God, their enemies (who are usually their families), and the church. They wanted to have a lingering death, because what they feared was God. We just feared death. We just want to put it off.”
Do not labor for the food that perishes, but for the food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you. For on him God the Father has set his seal. (John 6:27, ESV)
Worship
You become like what you worship. You reflect the one you worship.
