On the way home from church one Sunday, a little boy asked his mother, "Is it true that we are all made of dust?" His mother answered, "Yes, that's what the Bible tells us. The Bible says that we came from dust, and one day we will return to dust." "Well, Mommy," the boy said, "when I kneeled down to say my prayers last night, I looked under the bed. And if what you say is true, there were a lot of people coming and going under there." This passage reminds us of the hope that we have, despite our mortality. -- Bowen
