[19th Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year C, August 7, 2016 Wis 18:6-9 Ps 33:1+12, 18-19, 20-22 / Heb 11:1-2, 8-19 / Luke 12:32-48]

In a job interview three candidates were asked what is the most hopeful thing that could be said about them at their funeral. The first said that he was a great guy, the second that he was not just a great guy but the company really did well after they took him on, the shares rocketed and branches were opened up all over the world. The third upon reflecting on the most hopeful thing he would like to hear at his funeral said, “Oh my God, look! His toes - they’re moving, he’s alive!”
