Dear Friend in the Lord,
“Wisdom of Living” – Faith: Jesus proclaimed to His disciples with great Wisdom, “Anyone who loses his life for My Sake; will save it. What benefit is it to anyone to win the whole world and lose his very self”? Ponder on, “Jesus’ wisdom reminds us that our life is to praise, reverence and serve God. And, receive our ‘Eternal Happiness’ or ‘Eternal sufferings’?”
Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
Luke 9:22-25
Jesus said to his disciples, ‘The Son of man is destined to suffer grievously, to be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes and to be put to death, and to be raised up on the third day.’
Then, speaking to all, he said, ‘If anyone wants to be a follower of mine, let him renounce himself and take up his cross every day and follow me. Anyone who wants to save his life will lose it; but anyone who loses his life for my sake, will save it. What benefit is it to anyone to win the whole world and forfeit or lose his very self?’
