When things don't depend on you,

you are free from the stress of guilt,

but it no way means that things always go well.

Actually, most of things in the world don't go well

at all, even thought the choir of nations endlessly

sing around us, "Everything's gonna be all right."

I'm sure these were the last words that were told

to so many of those who now populate our

ever-growing cemeteries around the world.

It's gonna go well only, if you can say today,

"For me to live is Christ and to die is gain."

Philippians 1:19-21
