What if the gift of our lives was not measured by time or money, but rather by the sacrifice in our hearts? That’s the lesson the Lord reveals about the poor widow in the Gospel today.
We are called to be a “living stone” in the hands of the Lord. Purchased by the blood of Christ, our lives are precious – worthy not only of redemption but as an offering through which God can transform and create something dynamic and new. May we offer our lives today and recognize in our sisters and brothers the beauty of their souls.
1st Peter tells us that we have been ransomed…with the precious blood of Christ. The Lord’s sacrifice reveals God’s value of our souls and shows us how we can share our lives – loving one another as Jesus loves us. Go make a difference today!
