Aristotle said:  “The energy of the mind is the essence of life.”

Marcus Tullius Cicero said: “I see the essence of a happy life in a strong spirit.”

Reinhold Neibuhr said:  “Change is the essence of life.”

William Arthur Ward said:  “The essence of life is to care.”

Dennis Waitley said:  “The essence of life is finding something you really love.”

Harry Mavromichalis said: “The essence of life is constant growth.”

With effervescence I say:  “The essence of life is full acquiescence to the presence of the living, resurrected Jesus Christ!”

Check out Christ before you check outta here!
–Look into the living Jesus while you’re still in the land of the living.
–You put you car in cruise control, why not put your life in Christ control?
