One Solitary Life

 

He was born in an obscure village, the child of a peasant woman. He worked in a carpentry shop until he was thirty, and then for three years he was an itinerant preacher.

 

When the tide of popular opinion turned against him, his friends ran away. He was turned over to his enemies. He was tried and convicted. He was nailed upon a cross between two thieves. When he was dead, he was laid in a borrowed grave.

 

He never wrote a book. He never held an office. He never traveled more than two hundred miles from the place where he was born. He never did one of the things that usually accompanies greatness.

 

Yet all the armies that ever marched, and all the governments that ever sat, and all the kings that ever reigned, have not affected life upon this earth as powerfully as has that One Solitary Life.

How true and powerful are these words from an unknown author. No one else past, present, or future will be as influential as our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. If you agree, pass this on!
