What will be your last thought before .....

What will be your last thought before you take that last breath?  Will it be, "Will I be worthy to see God's face?"  "Did I live enough of a Christ-like life?"  Who will I see up there (or, down there?!)?"  

Not everyone believes there's a heaven and a hell; but if you believe in God and consider yourself a Christian, what question will come to your mind? And if so, will you be able to answer without hesitation and with peace in your soul?

Last week at the 8:00 o'clock Mass, our pastor started the homily by asking himself how will he react when he's on his death bed seconds before leaving this earthly home--will he be out-of-this-world elated? will he feel worthy? will he have doubts (or guilt feelings)?

He asked we each consider what we will ask ourselves on that last second. 

These are deep questions that we should be asking ourselves now, so as to make our journey into the light easier--so that when our time comes, we can go acceptingly and in peace. 

What will be our last thought?  Seriously think about this. Our time may be closer than we think. Through Christ our Lord, God wants all his children to enjoy his heavenly home.  Amen!
