Life is short. Each day is a gift, and one never knows when they will die. You could be on a trip, and be hit by a car. Or have a heart attack, or a freak accident. Nothing is guaranteed, so each day should be treasured. We should be grateful for the people God places in our lives, and make sure they know it.
One thing we can be sure of; and that is the love God holds for us We know of thislove because of the gift of Jesus Christ, whose nativity we celebrate in a short few days. When God became man in order to secure our salvation through cross later, it was the ultimate gift. It was God showing us that while each day here on earth can not be guaranteed, His love can be. We can know, through our love and trust in Christ's mercy and grace, that our salvation is secure. What a gift that is!
God's grace be with you,
Fr. Charles Butler
