Ps145; 1 Corinthians 1:1-9 Matthew 24:42-51

Death

Jesus says - “Stay awake! For you do not know on which day your Lord will come”. It must be sad for those who have lost someone suddenly and maybe difficult for them to come to terms with. They may have doubts about their faith. How would we cope with a sudden death? Would the words of St Francis be comforting - “It is in dying that we are born to eternal life”?
