"The disciples were amazed at his words. So Jesus again said to them in reply, "Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God!" Mark 10:24
I wonder how our culture of instant gratification sees this verse? Most do not want to work for something, they want it now, so they go into debt to get it. The things of this world that we treasure places burdens on us, they weigh us down. It is not easy to enter the kingdom of God. We save for the kingdom each day by turning to God and giving Him our time and talents. It isn't instant but the rewards are everlasting. Are you building a treasure here on earth or is your treasure the Lord of Lords?
Dear Lord Jesus, I thank You for Your blessings. I thank You for Your guidance and Your joy. I ask that You show me the things that are making it difficult for me to get into heaven. I ask for the grace to follow Your direction in our journey. Bless this day with peace, protect those that I work and play with. Watch over our efforts that glorify You. I ask this in Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Queen of Angels, pray for us.
