Stay awake; Stay strong
Saturday, ,last week in Ordinary Time
Dan 7: 5-27; Lk 21: 34-36
The last day is here...it gives the feeling of an end of a journey, but ofcourse it is not just the end! It is a new beginning too, with tomorrow. The beginning came and the end has come.... if we do not stay awake we will not gather the fruits of what is going by. Staying awake is crucial.
What follows is again not all that flowery. It is a waiting, a waiting that is tedious, a waiting that can be trying, a waiting that is a bit painful. St Paul compared it to the pangs of child birth. Yes, only those who stay strong will endure till the end. Staying strong is crucial too.
The liturgical year ends today with an all new phase of challenge to begin: stay awake; stay strong!
