Evening: Psalms 9, 15; Matthew 22.23–33
When they questioned Jesus about what happens when you die, Jesus redirected their attention to the living, while leaving open the possibility of dimensions of reality beyond our comprehension. An unhealthy preoccupation with the afterlife – whatever you believe about it – is a distraction from this moment and from the life with which you have been blessed right now. While you live, worrying or speculating about what’s coming down the road means you never really live here. But here and now is all you really need to be concerned with. It is sufficient.
