    About this ebook

    Without an established relationship with the Creator the life of Man on earth and beyond is useless. A man was once given the choice of choosing between the wealth, riches, and fame of the earth and a narrow path that led to a mysterious destination beyond. Led by faith and clothe with humility he choosed the narrow path. That rough narrow path eventually led him to a haven of eternal bliss. There his wealth, riches, and fame knew no bounds and his happiness knew no dead end. We do not survive each tick of the clock by our own making but by the unmerited grace of the Creator. It is that unmerited grace that has sustained the continuous survival of man on earth. Knowledge, wisdom, and understanding come from the Creator, seek them and they shall be delivered unto you. The Creator loves you!
