Dear Friend in the Lord,

Faith – Wisdom”:  In today’s Gospel, Jesus presented the “Parable of the Fig Tree” to proclaim the Truth of the Presence of the “Kingdom of God” in our midst.  Ponder on, “Jesus reminds us that with the gift of faith, we also have the gift of wisdom to know and discern God’s Presence and Workings in our lives.  Do we live our faith in wisdom?

Fr Philip Heng, S.J.

Luke 21:12-19

Jesus told his disciples a parable, ‘Look at the fig tree and indeed every tree. As soon as you see them bud, you can see for yourselves that summer is now near. So with you when you see these things happening: know that the kingdom of God is near.

‘In truth I tell you, before this generation has passed away all will have taken place. Sky and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.’
