1 John 2:15-17
Do not love the world or the things in the world. If any one loves the world, love for the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the pride of life, is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world passes away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides for ever.
Homily:
Love is enduring.
When you apply the enduring to the ephemeral, the inevitable loss becomes enduring.
It is within your power to choose the object or subject of your love, because it is premised on the choice of where you pay attention.
Love the enduring. Use the ephemeral.
Casting pearls before swine
