Thought of the Day July 18, 2024 Priorities
“I don't put a penny's value on this life if only our Lord
will give me a tiny corner in Paradise.” St. Camillus de Lellis
So many
people spend their fortune on extending their life on earth and fail to prepare
for eternity. Jesus said it well. “What profit
would there be for one to gain the whole world and forfeit his life? Or what
can one give in exchange for his life”? (Matthew 16:26) Do we have our
values and priorities in right order according to God’s plan for us? Or have we
bought into the values of a passing world at the risk of our eternal salvation?
When I die, all material things are left behind. Only the spiritual things will
go with me before the Lord. Will my account be in the red or in the black?
