Not Too Late to Get Ready for Sunday


“Get ready for Sunday.”  The readings for the 32th Sunday in Ordinary Time are Wisdom 6:12-16, 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, and the Gospel from Matthew 25:1-13.

The first reading pertains to seeking out divine Wisdom.  In the second reading, St. Paul assures the Thessalonians, and us, that believers in Jesus who die before His return will be raised up.  And in the Gospel reading, Jesus teaches his disciples the virtue of being vigilant and, more importantly, prepared for His return through the parable of the virgins and their lamps.

Peace.
