Our, I mean Jesus' (see reflection
75) liturgy is a sample
of his liturgy in Heaven.
Jesus' earthly liturgy uses
heavenly words:
"Holy, holy, holy Lord, God of power and might"
Each time we take part in Jesus'
earthly liturgy,
our minds should get a holy distraction: Heaven
When we take part in Jesus'
earthly liturgy
- that's when we're closest to our deceased relatives and friends
It's as if Jesus' earthly liturgy
already has a foot in Heaven
Jesus, may our earthly liturgy
increase our longing for Heaven
and thereby give us more hope and joy and courage
for living each day here on earth
