The sole equality on earth is death.

The sole equality on earth is death.

Summary

This quote suggests that death is the great equalizer, as it affects every individual regardless of their social status, wealth, or power. In life, people may experience different levels of privilege or disparity, but death is an inevitable part of the human experience that transcends these differences. It reminds us that we are all mortal beings, united in our vulnerability and finality. This notion can serve as a profound reminder of the shared humanity and equalizing nature of our ultimate fate.

Do you often feel like parched ground, unable to produce any

Do you often feel like parched ground, unable to produce anything worthwhile? I do. When I am in need of refreshment, it isn't easy to think of the needs of others. But I have found that if, instead of praying for my own comfort and satisfaction, I ask the Lord to enable me to give to others, an amazing thing often happens - I find my own needs wonderfully met. Refreshment comes in ways I would never have thought of, both for others, and then, incidentally, for myself.
