                                 called 911 on your roommates phone and the fire department arrived.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   You were taken to the

My best friend back in 1984 died in a fire....Sometimes things are just meant to be...I still miss her so much. The part about the frail roommate hits home for me.
Once, while working in a refinary a man got trapped in a pit that caved in...huge pieces of stone fell in on him and he was suffocating...he already had had a heart attack before that.
Two of us jumped into the pit and removed stones that ordinarily we could never even pick up...
There has to be someone up there giving us the strength.

Hi,
You framed your thoughts into beautiful lines. Yea it is true you do or decide today, we never know what is in tomorrow. Based on this we decide we make our future.
As john is asking who is God, to reply to him, god is abode of love and righteousness, he tells what is right and wrong, guides people to do right, this is what Jesus Mohammad Krishna hVe done when they were on this earth.


Thank you

So who exactly is God? I hear a lot of claims, but none has verifiable proof.
