LIFE LESSON FROM OUR FIRST READING
When we recognize that our choices have eternal importance, we naturally become more intentional in living according to God’s values.

LIFE LESSON FROM OUR GOSPEL READING
This reading encourages us to be wise and intentional with what we have, seeing our time, skills, and possessions as means to help others and further God’s mission in our lives.

CONCLUSION
Paul’s reminder to focus on heaven is an invitation to see our lives in the light of God’s eternity, encouraging us to live each day with a faithful and purposeful heart.
Jesus uses this parable today to encourage us to be shrewd and strategic in our faith, investing our resources in ways that bring lasting goodness. This way of living honors God and deepens our sense of purpose, making each day a chance to live out our call to serve and love.
