We will rise with Christ on the last day

At mass over the weekend, we celebrated the Ascension of our Lord. Father spoke about the mortality of monuments we construct and our immortality as Christians.

I find myself asking,"What am I doing with my life, knowing that I will rise with Christ on the last day?" It seems such a profound concept that I seldom remind myself of my immortality. As I reflect on my life and my situation, I must admit that there is more that I can do in my life before my final ascension with Christ to our heavenly home.

I pray that God will grant me wisdom to acknowledge my role here on earth and contribute to the best of my God given talents. But more importantly, to be able to identify my talents and use it for His Glory and not mine.
