“Jesus is the Life to Be Lived”

Not having a job with compensation puts me in a similar quandary with those across the country who were suddenly unemployed early in the pandemic. My prospects for ministry are many, but remuneration is not promising. Now I am trying to set up grief support groups in a parish. Although there’s ache in not being employed, I know that ministering to others, trying to be Jesus Christ to them, is more important. I am privileged to live the life of Jesus. Mother Teresa said, “Jesus is the Life to be Lived.” So, I am determined to live my life to the best of my ability each day. In doing so, I will be Jesus Christ, who is the Life to be lived. May your days be filled with the same grace! LIVE JESUS!
