The Acronyms of Life

THE ACRONYMS OF LIFE by Father Charles Van Winkle, CSC

LIFE(Life Is For Eternity). TIME(This Is My Eternity). In time you are already living in eternity. The Book of Life is comprised of only two chapters: The chapter of “Time” and the chapter of “The Rest of Eternity.” The question you should be asking is, “How am I living this extremely brief chapter of ‘Time’ in preparation for the never-ending chapter of the Book of Life?”

When this extremely brief chapter of “Time” ends for you, all you will take with you to your final chapter of the Book of Life is your character reflecting your success or failure to have fulfilled your commission to become a lover: “Love God with your entire self, and love your neighbor as yourself.”

How are you able to LOVE(Live On Victoriously Eternally)? Well, KISS (Keep It Sanctifyingly Simple). Jesus tells us we must become as little children to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Therefore, steadfast childlike faith in Jesus Christ is the key: FAITH(Find All It Takes Here) in JESUS, for (Jesus Eternally Serves Us Salvation), for CHRIST(Christ Has Risen In Saving Triumph) that we celebrate in the MASS(Messiah Always Serving Salvation) .

Accordingly, if you have the faith of a child in Jesus, you say yes to YES(Your Eternal Savior) who is GOD(Good Orderly Direction) that is found in the BIBLE(Best Information Before Leaving Earth), and you say no to EGO(Edging God Out); you no longer WORRY for (Worry Only Reduces Resources within Yourself), and you fulfill your role as an APOSTLE(A Person Officially Sent To Love Everyone).

And when you are on your final departure bed, GOD(Good Orderly Direcction) will lead you to the fullness of LIFE(Life Is For Eternity), and you will abound in JOY(Jesus Our Yahweh) forever. Yes, you will truly LIVE (Live In Victory Eternally)if you live the FAITH-LOVE PRINCIPLE!
