From today’s reading...
But here is a list of illustrious men whose good works have not been forgotten. In their descendants they find a rich inheritance, their posterity.” Sirach 44:10-11
Actions have consequences. A butterfly flaps its wings in Kenya, and Texas gets a hurricane two weeks later. (An exaggeration…or not.) A father abandons his family, and his sons “have no choice” but to…become criminals…or leaders of society.
Everything that happens affects everything that follows. Newton set things in motion, Sadi Carnot, Rudolf Clausius, and William Thomson ran with it, and Walther Nernst kept on keeping on.
But we’re not talking about physics, we’re talking about faith, family, fitness, and even finances.
What you do today will impact your family for generations to come. Sirach knew it.
The author of Psalm 132 knew it.
God knows it.
Now you need to know it and act accordingly, which is the only way to...
Stay the course.
Keep the faith.
Endure.
Now go sell something.
