Become the Light




Times in our world seem full of darkness, what with unspeakably horrible war atrocities, and yet another school shooting. Too, we are faced with personal struggles : sickness, loss, divorce, and so on. Life can be difficult, that's for sure. Yet there is great hope to be found when we listen to the Master in the Gospel (which means Good News.)


In his parable about the Kingdom of Heaven, Jesus praises the two who have used their talents to earn more money, but the one who buried it in the ground gets into a lot of trouble. In fact, he is thrown out into darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
