  <description>&lt;p&gt;Homily from the Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Refuse to live as salt and light, and the Father remains unknown, unloved, and unglorified.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;God trusts us with being His representatives in this world. He has made us His and He has made us good. But to what end? God has made us good for a purpose. Do we live in such a way that we have been made good for nothing?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;dl&gt;
