Friday, 33rd Week in Ordinary Time, 2020

Our Saviour abolished death.
And he proclaimed this through the good news.
When we die, I wonder is this our last breath.
Will our body for ever we lose.

I have often doubted that not just the soul but the body is resurrected.
How can a body live in heaven unchanged.
But it is not that body that is resurrected.
It is something totally transformed.

The mighty oak comes from the tiny acorn.
It is genetically entirely created from it but it is entirely different.
The body in heaven will be unrecognisable, to this we are sworn.
Now we only hear see what is around us, then we will know every lovely scent.

Body and soul are only completed.
If they are never forever parted.
