The owner of the vineyard is the Lord and He invites every man, woman, and child to come into the vineyard and work it so as to make it produce the fruits of many good works. This means working with the moral order in all its implications for our homes, neighborhoods, and businesses. God's moral order extends to everyone, and every human activity. It does not stop at our nation's borders, but reaches out to embrace all God's sons and daughters. Heaven will never be found on earth.
Planet earth is planet earth.
It is a very good place to be for 70-80 years, but it is not Heaven. We will look for it here in vain, but we are all called to make this world reflect more and more of the moral order of God. No group of Catholics throughout the Christian centuries have been given so many advantages as Catholics in this great nation. The choice, my friends, is yours, and mine. Pope John Paul II, The Social.
