And distract ourselves from
All our lives is this:
That moment when we are alone with God,
And when we have to look into those blessèd eyes,
And realize how infinitely and personally He loves us,
And how we ought to change our entire lives
In loving response to His love.
I give you one parting word, my friend:
Celerity.
Do the will of God, and do it swiftly.
For you know not the day and the hour
Of your departing from this world to the next,
Whence shall be your reckoning
