Life Quote by Anonymous
““Boasting About Tomorrow 13Come now, you who say, s “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”— 14yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For t you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. 15Instead you ought to say, u “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.””
