"I have no desire for the honors of this world but solely for the glory of God and the salvation of my soul." Saint Bernardino Realino

Is this our thought? Is our life directed to the glory of God, so that one day we may share in his glory? The honors of this world, as we know, pass away like dust in the wind. What lasts beyond the grave is our relationship with God, not the accolades of the world. Many people spend their whole life chasing the honors of the world, rather than seeking to become saints, only to find to their eternal despair, their hands are empty in the moment of judgment. Don't waste your time on what is frivolous, but invest yourself in becoming a saint.
