1. Many of you may recognize the name Peter Sellers.
You probably remember him from the Pink Panther
movies. Although he made many laugh through his acting
and the parts he played in his movies, he himself was
an unhappy man. A biography of his life caught the
emptiness of his life in the title The Mask Behind The

Romans 8:35: "Who shall separate us from the love of

Matthew 24:3, "What shall be the sign of thy coming?"
Psalm 78:19: "Can God furnish a table in the
wilderness?"
Luke 17:17: "But where are the nine?"
