My
Reflection:
There is
a story of a holy man who would always find time for God and his fellowmen.
When he was asked why he was like that he would always tell them that this is
his way of preparing for the coming of the Lord. He would compare the coming of
the lord with death which comes to us without warning at all.
Jesus in
our gospel for this Sunday tells us to always be prepared and vigilant servant
of the Lord. To be like the Israelites in our first reading who patiently
waited with faith and courage for God to liberate them from the bondage of the Egyptians.
How could
we become vigilant and prepared servant of the Lord? By serving and obeying the
Lord without any reservation. By having faith in HIM faith that is alive and
working. This is the only way wherein we could be prepared and vigilant servant
of the Lord.
If death
will come to us which will certainly happen on God’s appointed time. Then, we
are prepared we have nothing to fear for we will be in heaven with God.
What if
we are not prepared and not vigilant servants? Where will we end up?
