     Based on verses in Psalms 100 and 146.

What are riches but silver and gold yet silver and gold can go away What is wealth but good health that can vanish in a trice What greater treasure is there than a happy, loving family before Disputes, Divorce and Death exact their inevitable toll... Woe to the man who puts his trust in this world A fortune has he who serves the Lord ~ eternally happy
