Close not your eyes to the vulnerable

Where will we be when we die? Do we choose eternal joy with God? Or eternal torments in hell fire? In this season of Lent, the story of Lazarus and the rich man teaches us that, the worldly and earthly possessions are of no benefit in the afterlife.

St. Augustine sees in this parable a warning against the dangers of neglecting the poor and the spiritual consequences of prioritizing wealth and earthly pleasures over faith and compassion for the many lazarus around us. Have I fell to be compassionate and charitable to the less privileged?

Jesus, I trust in you
