Rather than any sense of entitlement, reward, or even the idea that we can somehow earn or merit God's love, or that God should thank us for doing what's merely necessary in our wonderful task of building up God's kingdom and for giving unceasing thanks to God for what is rightfully God's. And what is rightfully God's is everything. +++++ References: Fr Paul W. Kelly SHARING THE WORD THROUGH THE LITURGICAL YEAR. GUSTAVO GUTIERREZ. Living Liturgy – Homily reflection notes.
