08/03/25 Memento Mori

Homily from the Eighteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time.

Remember you will die. Remember you have died.

We are called to live a new life. But we cannot live a new life until we have allowed our old life to die. We need to remember that we will die in the future. Christians also have the chance to remember that we already have died.
