A Christian Ending to Our Life
“Everything, therefore, has to do with the end.”- Abba Paphnutius (The Conferences, 3.5.4)
Reaching the end requires much labor. If the end is not well, the beginning and the middle are of little consequence. If the athlete trains to win the race and fails to do so, he looks upon his preparation as inadequate. If the farmer does not yield a good harvest, he suffers despite his best intentions.
