"Everything that is not for God is empty." St Francis Caraccolo

This is an interesting statement. Yet, how true it is! How much time and energy do we expend in things that are not of or for God? Compare these to the things we do for and in God. Then, see the two in the light of eternity. Which will have greater and lasting merit? What can we do? Even in the mundane things of life, do all for God. Here is a saying I have used often. "Do what you are suppose to do, when you are suppose to do it, the way you are to do it, to the best of your ability for the love of God." In this way, nothing will be empty or meritless.
