“BUT OF THAT DAY OR HOUR, NO ONE KNOWS,NEITHER THE ANGELS IN HEAVEN, NOR THE SON, BUT ONLY THE FATHER.” MK 13:32
Humbly submit your will to God (thy Will be done) and consecrate yourself to the Sacred Heart of Jesus through Mary and Joseph.
Prayer Prompt before reading MK 13:24-32: Come, Holy Spirit, teach me how to pray, interpret the Scriptures for me so that I may know the Truth about who God the Father and God the Son are so that I may know who I am.
Today, Jesus says, “Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.” These Words are what created out of nothing, baptize, reconcile us in confession, reveal the Truth of salvation through Jesus, consecrate the bread and wine, ordain priests, heal the sick and dying, and consecrate a marriage with vows. Read Scripture daily to spend time with the Word, Jesus.
Second, remember what the Church states as the 4 last things: Death, Judgment, Hell, and Heaven. There is no doctor, surgeon, or scientist that can stop these final things to our body and soul. There is One who can, Jesus Christ and He will come again to judge us. For the first time in human history death did not mean the end of life, Jesus, the God Man died on a Cross and conquered evil, sin and death.
Now, we are living in the end times just waiting for Him to return for the Final Judgment. Jesus’ death did not mean the end of life anymore, but the beginning of a new life with the Trinity in heaven. We have inherited this new life if we choose it through Baptism. Bishop Barron writes, “Jesus, the Son of Man, is coming on the clouds right now through the Church.”
In Judgment, the Light will shine on the darkness and the darkness of our lives will be revealed. We will meet the God Man and he will show us our lives. He will ask if we worshiped, gave thanks and praise, adored the One who gave us life. Then, he will ask us what we did with this gift of life.
We will give an account of how we used this life to love, the purpose for which it is created! We are headed to a place where Love rules and abounds! Be vulnerable and allow God in. Start putting your time and effort into loving. The love of God is more powerful than anything in the world!
This life is not all there is, we are going to another place. There is no power on earth that can take the love of God away from us. Heaven is now open to sinners and we do not have to remain in our sin because of the actions of the Holy Trinity!
Today’s challenge: Read the Scriptures daily in the same place at the same time, thank Jesus for what He did and make a decision to follow Him with your whole heart, mind, strength, and soul for the rest of your life! Thank our Father for giving us a life to love.
Be a servant, be a saint today!
