It needs, therefore, fathers and mothers who help, especially young people, to understand that to be free is not to remain perpetually before a crossroads, making little \u201cescapades\u201d to the right and left, without ever really taking a road.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let us not forget what will happen in the Final Judgment: the Lord will not ask us, \u201cWhat did you study? How many degrees did you have? How many accomplishments have you brought?\u201d No, no: \u201cCome, come with me,\u201d the Lord will say, \u201cfor I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was persecuted and you kept me.\u201d This is the theme of the final examination on which we will be judged.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
