Teaching about Anger
Matthew 5:20-26
The Bigger Question
It’s not a question of if we will die,
but when, but how and the circumstances.
Will we be afraid, in pain, alone or consoled?
Will we be reconciled with everyone?
It’s not a question of whether we will face judgment,
but by whom, but by which criteria?
For how we changed the world,
for how well we followed the rules,
for how well we loved those who knew us best?
Yet deep down we know,
the bigger question is how we live,
this day especially…admitting that our days are cumulative.
For me, and dearly I pray it is of God,
may I be judged by how I loved my family,
believing that loving goodness radiates from there.
