Post Navigation

Though Christ called himself โthe way,โ in another sense heโs our end, our destination. Donโt settle down somewhere on the way so that you never come to the end. Whatever else you come to on lifeโs journey, pass on by it, until you come to the end, Christ himself. Some seek money. Donโt let it be your end. Pass on by, like a traveler in a foreign land. For if you love money, youโll be entangled by greed. And greed will be like chains on your feet. You wonโt be able to make any more progress along the way. . .You seek honors. Perhaps you seek them in order to accomplish something that pleases God. If so, donโt love the honor itself. Otherwise, you might stop there. Do you seek praise? If you seek Godโs praise, then you do well โ but not if you seek your own praise. Youโre stopping short along the way. See, brothers and sisters, how many things we pass on lifeโs journey that arenโt the end. These we may make use of along the road, taking a break โ but then we must travel on.
St. Augustine
