Tell the people everything about this life

“Go and take your place in the temple area, and tell the people everything about this life.” (ACTS 5: 20)

The way we live, the pace of life, the lack of reflection and no clear priorities based on our vocation and identity cause a lot of problems in our lives. Our Lord sends the Apostles to “take [their] place in the temple area, and tell the people everything about this life.”  We are invited not to temporary life only but to “eternal life,” and His mission was “that everyone who believes in Him might have eternal life.” We, with our vocations, also should “go and take our place” in this mission: “tell the people everything about this life.” 

“God so loved the world that he gave his only-begotten Son, so that everyone who believes in him might have eternal life.” (Gospel Acclamation)
