But in the light of that place, we will all be rejoicing together in the boundless mercy that found us when we were lost and alone and brought us into a family where we can never lose one another again. In that place, I won't be jealous that you have more saints welcoming you home, but having passed through the fire of His divine love, I'll be rejoicing as they all surround you, and I'll be one of those thanking you for the kindness and love you've shown me along the days of our earthly pilgrimage.William Weedonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01383850332591975790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291232.post-34827143323578283502008-07-15T13:17:00.000-05:002008-07-15T13:17:00.000-05:00So if you do more of the good works than I do, wil...So if you do more of the good works than I do, will you get to meet more saints and angels, or what?
