Eternity Quote by Derek L. Worthington
““There is a paradox in our pursuit of life. The more we fill our hearts with what the world promises will give life the less alive we feel. The less alive we are. Our hearts have been created with a capacity for eternity. Anything less than eternity arouses our hunger without the ability to satisfy.””
