The Paschal Mystery shows us that God is
merciful. He sacrificed his only son to offer us eternal life. As Psalm 145:
8-9 states, “The Lord is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in
mercy. The Lord is good to all, and his compassion is over all that he has
made.” As humans, we are a central part of God’s creation. We are responsible
for caring for, catering to, and appreciating the other aspects of God’s
creation. We are made in the image and likeness of God. Our work has special
value and we possess great dignity. The Lord created us each with individual
souls. We all have a purpose in life, each, like our souls, is different. We
must embrace our individual gifts that we have been given. If we refuse to
offer our talents to God and those around us, we will not live up to our
potential as prominent components in the workings of this planet that we
inhabit.
