Commentary on the Gospel of

Bible Diary - Claretian Publications Philippines

YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TOMORROW WILL BRING

James compares human life to a mist that only appears momen­tarily. In our youth we think we possess our lives and that life is endless, so we go about establi­shing our kingdoms. But as we age and deteriorate, we confront our mortality. Some rage against our contingency by exerting every effort to perpetuate themselves or their memory. Others fall into despair or cynicism, thinking ­nothing ultimately matters. We pray to be grateful for every ­moment of our limited years and surrender our lives to the Giver of Life who will ultimately draw us into his eternity.
