This is an approximation of the homily I delivered at the 9:00 AM Mass at St Luke the Evangelist Church in Slidell. The readings are for the 23rd week of ordinary time and can be found here.
Wise sayings are brief, catchy phrases that help remind us about some important behavior or principle of life. For example:
During WWII there was a strong concern that sailors on leave might accidentally reveal information to the enemy that could harm the allied cause. The phrase “loose lips sink ships” or “loose lips might sink ships” was coined as something easy to remember to remind military personnel to guard their words at all times.
And then there is my favorite :“Life is like a box of chocolates.
