WHO IS OUR
SECURITY? Jesus and his disciples are on the road to Jerusalem. Jesus
is asked to settle a rather mundane issue regarding inheritance. The
rich man in the parable believed that his overly abundant crops would
buy his future security. Todays Gospel asks us the difficult
question: Have we been more evangelized by the gospel of rugged
individualism than we have been by the Gospel of Jesus Christ?
THAT'S NOT MY JOB:
There is a story told about 4 people named Everybody, Somebody,
Anybody and Nobody. There was an important job to be done and
Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it. Anybody could have done
it, but Nobody did it. Somebody got angry about that because it was
Everybody's job. Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but Nobody
realized that Everybody wouldn't do it. It ended up that Everybody
blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have. |
