Catholics pray: “May our “Jesus Receiver” let us see that “Time IS runnng out.”.

Question 1: “What Word of Jesus about Time and Money do Catholic ‘Jesus Receivers’ take in?”
Answer: “Our ‘Jesus Receivers’ let us apply The Old Saying: ‘Time is money.’ to Today’s Word of Jesus in Mt. 12:41-44. Jesus tells us how to spend the time on earth that is our ‘money’:
‘Jesus sat down opposite the treasury and observed how the crowd put money into the treasury. Many rich people put in large sums. A poor widow also came and put in two small coins worth a few cents.’
~
Question 2: “How does that connect to ‘Time is money.’?”
Answer: “Jesus explained: ‘Calling His disciples to Himself, He said to them, ‘Amen, I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all the other contributors to the treasury. For they have all contributed from their surplus wealth (their spare time), but she, from her poverty, has contributed all she had, her whole livelihood.’”

Question 3: “If every person’s ‘Time is Money’ in God’s eyes, what percentage of her ‘time on earth’ did the ‘poor widow’ invest in thanking God for her blessings?”
Answer: “The ‘poor widow’ had given her life to taking care of her husband and family. Then, she gave ‘all she had’ to God. She was like the first Catholic nun! She was 100% ‘invested in God’!”
~
Question 4: “What do the ‘Jesus Receivers’ in Catholic minds let us see?”
Answer: “Our ‘Jesus Receivers’ let us see that our Catholic priests and religious take Holy Vows of Celibacy, Poverty, and Obedience. They are closer to being 100% invested in God than the people on earth who do not make that investment of time in ‘Heaven’s Bank’ on earth!”
~
Question 5: “Thousands of people went through God’s Temple in Jerusalem every day. Why was only one of them praised by Jesus?”
Answer: “The only one of them praised by Jesus on That Day was the one ‘poor widow’ who had made a 100% investment in God. Clearly, Jesus is telling us all to ‘Be as Catholic as you can!’ He is not impressed by those who only follow Words of His that justify the tiny percentage of their lives they give to God.”
~
Every person’s “money and time” are one to God. May every Catholic’s “Jesus Receiver” see His Words and be as pleasing to Jesus as ‘the poor widow’. The ‘richest billionaire’ in The Temple that day gave 100% of her time by giving 100% of her money.
Many people want our money. May all be blessed to support The Only Church Spoken Into Being by This Word of He Who praised ‘the poor widow’ to The First Catholic Pope: “And I say unto you thou art Peter and on this rock I build My Church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven.”
