Friday of Week 18 in Ordinary Time

For whoever will save his life will lose it.
But whoever loses his life for my sake will save it.
What in our life is writ.
Where is our life lit.
It is in doing what we don’t want to do.
In sacrifice for what is right,
Even if we are not among the many but the few.
Always seeking the light.
In not wanting to succumb.
To overcome all our obsessions.
Even if it leaves us numb.
We have learnt some lessons.
In not giving in.
In accepting what is on the tin.
……
If we lose our life
If yes we do it for him
Then we will save it
….
See Matthew 16: 24-28
