Tobit 3:1-11,16-17, Ps 25, Mark 12:18-27

What it will be like when we die is a mystery to us. Jesus is given a riddle by the Sadducees to solve in today’s Gospel. His answer points to a deeper reality about God and what happens in death. Through his power we will be with him like angels. The things of this earth will be forgotten and we will recognise God as the Lord of all. Let us not be afraid of death. God is with us now, and will be with us even more so in death.
