We “know” that God made us to be with Him eternally. We “know” that He will give us all the graces we need to get to our heavenly home. We "know" that we are free to accept or ignore those graces. We “know” that we must ever be prepared to meet Him when He calls. We also “know” that He will come like a thief in the night.
Yet how often do we act like we have all the time in the world to reorient our lives and to make them one with His? How foolish can we be?
“We have received baptism, entrance into the Church, and the honor of being called Christians. Yet what good will this do us if we are Christians in name only and not in fact?”-St. Andrew Kim Taegon
