Saturday 34th week of Ordinary Time


Be Vigilant!  Lk. 21:34-36


Soldiers are vigilant as they stand guard. 

Shoppers are vigilant as they watch for sales. 

Athletes are vigilant as they wait for their opportunity to score. 

Actors are vigilant as they wait for their big break. 


Everyone is vigilant for something. 


As Christians we are vigilant waiting for the Lord’s return. 

The way we are vigilant is by not becoming drowsy from carousing and drunkenness and the anxieties of daily life. Lk. 21:34


Instead keep one’s heart alert through love for neighbor 

And longing for God. 

This is not difficult and should be a daily thing. 


So that the Lord can come at anytime,

And our hearts will be ready.
