We love our life, cling to it, hug it, study how to prolong it, rebel if God thinks fit to shorten its span, nay, when we have run our scriptural appointed course – “three score and ten and what is more of them is labour and sorrow” (Psalm 89) – we hunger for more. But do we ever seriously ask ourselves: “Does this life carry any responsibility with it?”

Father Doyle gives us much to think about in the above passage. It seems that the best point we can take from it is that we leave all to God, every aspect of our long or short life. Please, Father Doyle, assist us in keeping God first, knowing that every moment and everything that happens in that moment is allowed by God Who knows best. May we have the openness to use His grace that will see us through it all.
