Today’s gospel calls us to It calls us to serve the master whose love will always endure.

Luke’s parable of the sheep asks us to assess what valuable people and things have we lost from our lives.

People can change, and we must allow them to do so.

When we must pass through the narrow gate what is most important is trust.

Jesus tells us our chief priority cannot be keeping people happy.

We prepare for the unexpected by living our relationship with God today.
