        \n
      1. In The Soliloquy of the Soul<\/em>, Kempis intimates that life on this earth is but a poor substitute for the eternal life which is to come. But doesn’t God intend for us to enjoy our lives? (Day 64)<\/li>\n
      2. Kempis wrote in Chapter 22, “WHEREVER you are, wherever you go, you are miserable unless you turn to God.”<\/em> Is this true? (Day 65)<\/li>\n
      3. In The Spaniards’ Graves<\/em>, Celia Leighton Thaxter (1836-1894) wrote about the families who waited for sailors to return from sea, “Year by year, Weary they watched, till youth and beauty passed, And lustrous eyes grew dim and age drew near, And hope was dead at last.”<\/em> Isn’t there always hope, in God? (Day 67)<\/li>\n
      4. In Chapter 23, Kempis cautioned us to be ready for death at any time. We don’t know when we will die, nor when Christ will return. Would you live your life any differently if you knew for certain that today was your last day on Earth? (Day 68)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
