18TH SUNDAY OF ORDINARY TIME July 31st, 2016
TODAY’S GOSPEL TELLS US . . .
Luke 12:13-21
he rich man in the parable judges that he has stored up enough possessions to guarantee a good life without worries, or so he thinks. Any reliance on wealth and possessions, however, is pure folly; both worldly possessions and this life are fleeting. What truly matters is the inheritance that only God can give: The fullness of eternal life. What “matters to God” is spending our life dispossessing ourselves of anything which hinders us from growing into the fullness of life.
