A Nice Sermon

Our priest did a nice sermon last week.  He said he was asked to make a short video on 'What is the meaning of life?'  After some thought, he said 'to love someone, to have something to do and to have something to look forward to.'  Then he thought he should have changed that 'to be loved' instead of 'to love'.  Which led him to say that 'God loved us before we loved him'.

  3. Yes, He loved us first. When we love first, it is usually returned. Good sermon, and great advice. Thanks Christine.
