    When Jesus says that his kingdom "does not belong to this world" he isn't saying that it does not involve this world. Indeed it does. God has plans for creation - and the ultimate plan is called "the kingdom of God." But the values and principles that belong to the world as we know it, are not the values and principles of God. Reflect on this in today's reading.

    "It's not the end of the world." It is a phrase we hear throughout our lives, trying to tell us that nothing will ever be so bad as "the end of it all." But this fear mongering is not how the Lord wants us to look at this event. It is the birth, the wonderous transformation of all that is good - in us, in others, in all creation. And when it comes to goodness, there is no death, for we are in the hands of a good and loving God. Reflect on this more with Bishop Ken today.

    We are often told that if we give everything we have, that we will "burn out" or extinguish ourselves, but the Lord teaches us repeatedly that to give joyfully and generously is how we become fulfilled. In today's reading, we reflect more upon His desire for us to share ourselves, our time, our caring, and the things that we possess with others.
