Book of life Quote by Pearls Of Wisdom
“Some of you have returned to earth for no other reason than that you bore the inordinate desire to save those whose names are not written in the Book of Life, whom God would not save...God will always use you to save a soul whenever it is possible. And when it is not [possible to save that which is lost], you must simply accept it, even if you are dealing with life-streams very close to yourselves... -Beloved Gautama Buddha”
