In the homily, Father Eric said that in life even the Lord told us the truth that He is the Son of God.
He also said that life is really short. He told us that we must wake up and face the truth that because that life is short, we will not have enough time for us to show that we really love the person’s that we truly love, like our parents and our friends.To sacrifice and to love are two things that we need to learn from today’s Gospel which is we are called to have the initiative to show our love to our parents. We must not let them show their love first before showing ours. And maybe a few years from now we will be able to turn back in time and remember that we already experienced to love and to sacrifice for our loved ones and especially, for the Lord.In this homily, I have reflected that time is really short and I must show my parents that I really love them even if it is hard for people like me, or in my age, to express our love to them.
I learned that God wants me to learn to love and to sacrifice not just for myself, but also for others because one day, I will be able to look back at all the things I have done while I was still young and I will be able to say that I was able to show my love to all the people that I love and to all the people who loves me. And of course, to be able to do this successfully, I must ask God’s guidance and pray to Him to help me show my love to whoever I want and to help me do sacrifices for me, for all the people I love, and for Him as well.
