It's a Wonderful Life

Flee from youthful passions, and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace. - 2 Timothy 2:22

Donna Mullenger was discovered in Hollywood, changed her name, and began a movie career. She played the role of Mary Bailey in the holiday favorite It's a Wonderful Life. But her greatest fame came as the star of the show that bore her name, The Donna Reed Show. On TV she played the perfect mom. Behind the scenes Donna was also a hardworking creative force and a TV pioneer.

Another TV mom, Lucille Ball, said: "I don't trust luck. Luck is really just hard work and realizing what your opportunities are and aren't."

Lucy was right. And when you realize the opportunities you have to show love, do what is right, and trust God, it really can be a wonderful life.

"I wish to live because life has with it that which is good, that which is beautiful, and that which is love." - Lorraine Hansberry
