And this is what we call the corporal works of mercy, is that call by Jesus to say, okay, take care of those who are sick, take care of those who are in prison, care for those who are naked and hungry and thirsty.

And do I do that?
voice-verified
And we get to ask this question, like, okay, I might not be a horrible person.
voice-verified
I might actually even strive after the Lord.
voice-verified
But I have to ask myself, what about those sins of omission?
voice-verified
Where have I not responded when someone around me was in need?

Now, um just a little last little thing I've apolog well, two last little things about this is so important because we recognize that as Saint James will say, faith without works is dead.

Years ago, I remember my mom at one point, I've shared this before, but I uh she had wanted to she was a nurse and she wanted to travel the world on what was called at the time the good ship hope.
voice-verified
I think they call them mercy ships, and basically to be a medical missionary to those around the world because she heard the words of Jesus here in Matthew twenty five and like, yeah, feed the sick, clothe the naked, give drink to the thirsty, like take care of those who are in need of being taken care of.
voice-verified
Um, that was her that was her dream.
voice-verified
And then she met my dad and they got married and had a bunch of kids and you know, part of that you think that oh that dream is that your dream is over and and you don't get to live that that missionary life.
voice-verified
But then you realize, wait a second, so my mom has six kids and a bunch of grandkids now.
voice-verified
And
voice-verified
Like, mom, that's what you spent your whole life doing.
