The mysteries of who we are and what we will become after our lives
Are so interesting to many people,
That some forget that the things we do during this life
Are the things we have the most means to control.
We look to issues in scripture about who will get in and who will be kept out of heaven,
And sometimes we miss all the scriptural references to caring for the widows,
Taking care of the poor,
Feeding the hungry,
Caring for the sick,
And walking humbly with our Lord.
Help us to be focused on loving and caring for people in this world.
Don’t allow us to lose focus on others’ bodies by trying to save their souls.
Help us to remember that we are called to love God and others,
Before we do anything else.
Amen.
