The successful business man declares: "To me to live is fortune.”
The unsuccessful says: "To me to live is toil and labor.”
The philosopher's aim: "To me to live is knowledge.”
The ambitious one declares: "To me to live is fame.”
What should be the ruling passion of the Christian young man or woman today? Does this voice ring out above all the voices of the world: "To me to live is not fortune, nor toil, nor knowledge, nor fame, nor glory—but Christ.”
Let Christ be first, last, everything, always and perpetually—Christ.
