Dear Friend in the Lord,
“Vigilance – Faith”: Jesus proclaimed to His disciples the need to serve God’s Mission with vigilance. Ponder on, “To serve God with vigilance demands that we ‘die to ourselves’ daily; and embrace the challenges and sacrifices; as Jesus has taught us. His Persecution and Death on the Cross, was His Vigilant Commitment to live His Father’s Will and Ways.”
Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
Luke 12:35-38
Jesus said to his disciples: ‘See that you have your belts done up and your lamps lit. Be like people waiting for their master to return from the wedding feast, ready to open the door as soon as he comes and knocks.
‘Blessed those servants whom the master finds awake when he comes. In truth I tell you, he will do up his belt, sit them down at table and wait on them. It may be in the second watch that he comes, or in the third, but blessed are those servants if he finds them ready.’
