This World Is Not Heaven | Fr. Stephen Zigrang

[00:00:01]Because we think, well, God doesn't mind if we  take a vacation from our prayers or We mistake worldly success as a blessing from him. But  did God ever promise us worldly success? Or did he say, if you believe in me, you won't have to  suffer? Or that going to heaven is easy? God never promised that we would never die. So the same,  he never promised that our life would be carefree without any struggle. But he did promise us his  grace, that he would never abandon us and that he is preparing our welcome in heaven with our crown  after we complete our fight. So why are we worried about peace on earth? Or no more suffering?  and not having a utopia tomorrow. We should worry more about what counts, that is our soul,  its purity, about our family, its faithfulness to God. My friends, these are the priceless  things, more valuable than anything else.

[00:01:22]So let's resolve to do nothing that would  offend God and disappoint the Blessed Mother.
