I was thinking of how often we use the word 葬going鋳.I知 going for a rest.I知 going for a meal.I知 going to work.I鋳m going to school.I知 going on holiday.I知 going to Mass .I知 going to play a game.I知 going to meet friends,.Life is like a journey,or a flowing river on its way to the ocean and beyond..Jesus said that his life was a journey too, from The Father in Heaven to the world,and back again to The Father ,and He promises to bring us with Him. Jesus says to day 葬I am going to prepare a place of joy for you in Heaven.His Going gathers together all our goings .He also promises to be with us on the journey.Those are very consoling words ,because we all have some fear of dying.A young soldier was wounded in battle,and was dying.The priest whispered into his ear ....Let Our Father ,in Heaven welcome you home.I like that prayer .So let us go our way ,and live our day ,with words that are good and friendly .
