Father Al came to Bible study, tonight. We were preparing for Sunday's readings (Twenty-sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time). The Gospel is about the rich man and poor Lazarus. (Luke 16: 19-31) We were wondering about life in heaven. But Father Al, said to forget about that. We should concentrate on making our lives blessings for others. He has a point.
The Gospel calls us to heal, fix, and mend, and put everything in good order.
To fail to do so is to risk becoming as self-absorbed as the rich man in the parable.
