Today we hear in the first reading about how the prophet Daniel foresaw a time of great distress and ultimate judgment for the living and the dead. Who supports you when you are feeling anxious or are deeply worried?
Today we hear about how Jesus praises the widow who gives to the poor despite her own poverty. Do you have family or friends who likewise selflessly give to others?
Christ tells us that we must love God with all our heart, all our soul, all our mind and all our strength. Live that love loudly. Hold nothing back. Give God all you have.
