What was your criteria for “living for the Lord?” Where did you get it? How old were you when you made these observations? How do you know that you were old enough and wise enough to recognize “living for the Lord” if you saw it? Could it be that you might have made some mistakes and misjudged people? Were you a light to the people you came into contact with? Could someone have seen you and thought that you were “living for the Lord?”
Few people realize that Pope Dawgus the One and Onliest gave a perpetual indult to families with small children (where small is "up to 25 years old"): Merely getting everybody clean and out the door at the same time and in time to get to Church before the Mass is over is a sign of heroic virtue.
