TODAY’S WORD…

.

Jesus said,

“Therefore stay alert,

because you do not know on what day your Lord will come.”

.

– Matthew 24:42 (NET)

.

.

.

REFLECTION…

.

Jesus is telling us, in other words,

that we need to be careful and expectant,

living each day as if it were our last.

.

The important thing is to keep ourselves in a state of grace

– by living accordingly.

QUOTE…

.

“If Jesus were to return right now, how will He find me?

Am I … focused entirely on myself?

Or am I … focused on the needs of my brothers and sisters?

Do I sing my own praises and seek earthly glory

or do I sing God’s praises

and seek to glorify God by my words and actions?”

.

– Fr. Jason Mitchell LC

REPETITIVE PRAYER FOR TODAY…

.

Lord Jesus, come live in me and take over.

Keep my eyes focused on You;

my feet on the right path;

my heart desiring only what is good;

my mind fixed on Your truth.

Come, Lord Jesus!
