“Blessed is
anyone who has not sinned in speech and who needs feel no remorse for sins.
Blessed is anyone who conscience brings no reproach and who has never given up
hope” (Sirach 14:1-2)
‘My child,
treat yourself as well as you can afford and bring worthy offerings to the
Lord’ {Sirach 14:11} i.e in treating yourself as well as you can afford let
that lifestyle not make your offerings to the Lord unworthy having in mind that
nothing unworthy will enter that city “nothing unclean may come into it: no one
who does what is loathsome or false, but only those who are listed in the
Lamb’s book of life” (Rev.21:27).
“Like
clothes, everybody will wear out, the age-old law is, everyone must die. Like
foliage growing on a bushy tree, some leaves falling, others growing, so are
the generations of flesh and blood: one dies, another is born. Every
achievement rots away and perishes and with it goes its author” [Sirach
14:17-19]
