Flashbulbs

There are places in the world where the cameras never cease to pop and crackle, where every moment is recorded with precision and artful glamour.  I don't need to tell you such places are rare.

There are many more places where good deeds and bad deeds alike go entirely unrecorded.  The clock is ticking, but no one's watching.  Worse yet, no one seems to care.  

If you find yourself trying to do good, yet lacking motivation, remember that there is One greater.  ALL wrongs will be made right, and ALL rights will not go unrewarded.  In fact, this life isn't all there is.  For those who choose God's way, they will receive eternal life and a reward greater than money or power.

The reward is Him.  Can't see it yet?  Don't believe it's really worth it?  

Keep PRAYING; keep SEEKING.  You'll see it.  History lies beneath the headlines, and despite what you feel, God is planning an "after party" to quash all rumors of injustice or mediocrity and make every paparazzo within a million light years of Earth drool like a Labrador in a sweaty meat market.

It's worth it.  Don't give up.
