When life goes crazy, it’s easy to get caught up in the chaos and crisis. We start to live based on what news headlines, doctors reports, and circumstances tell us.

A typical prayer goes something like this: "Please help us find the money to pay our mortgage this month."

Paul, too, bore the hope of receiving the crown of life, since he kept and preached the faith. Indeed, the whole choir of the saints who did likewise and finished the race well has been glorified.
