FAITH BOOK


Mini-reflections on the Sunday scripture readings designed for persons on the run. "Faith Book" is also brief enough to be posted in the Sunday parish bulletins people take home.


From today’s Gospel reading:

Jesus said to his disciples:

“Therefore, stay awake! For you do not
know which day your Lord will come.”

Reflection:

 

In today’s gospel Jesus urges us to stay awake and ready for his coming. Not with fear but with awareness, living each day attentive to God’s presence in the ordinary moments of life.

 

So, we ask ourselves:

  • What in my life needs to be transformed into an instrument of peace?

  • How am I living each day alert to Christ’s presence?

  • What concrete steps of kindness, forgiveness, generosity can I take this Advent to reflect God’s light in my family, community or world?
