the last things
A pure soul is worth any suffering on earth. A pure soul in heaven, cleansed of sins, is worth all the self-sacrificial love.
Jesus, forgive me that I do not strive for such perfection of charity and sacrificial love.
involvement
In our relationships with others, we cannot just be present. We need to be involved. Being present is like being a Scarecrow in the field, useless in preventing the birds from gnawing at the fruits. We need to be involved, actively, protecting and assuring those around us that we are not only just present, but active to help, to walk, to give.
