In the Beatitudes Jesus promises that those who mourn will be comforted and those who hunger will be filled. His words point to the future, but not just a far off, heavenly day of fulfillment. The book of Revelation says that “every tear will be wiped away.” Saints, exemplars of the faith, are those who are caught up in the future promise and begin wiping away tears right here, right now. We have lots of work to do, people.
