Faith  in  God  and  Readiness  to  meet  Him  The   central   theme   of   this   Sunday’s   readings   is  

the   faith   in   God   and   vigilant   readiness   to   meet   with  Him.  The   first   reading   helps   us   to   understand   the   faith-­‐filled  preparedness  of  the  ancient  Hebrew  slaves  in  Egypt  before  their  journey  to  the  Promised  Land.  Their  trusting  faith   in   Yahweh   gave   them   hope.     Their   faith   and   hope  resulted   in  their   liberation.  The  Second  Reading  helps  us  to   understand   Faith   as   “the   realization   of  what   is   hoped  for  and  evidence  of   things  not  seen.”    It   tries   to  encourage  the   Faith   of   the   Jewish   Christians   by   appealing   to   the  example  of  the  life  Abraham.    

In   the   Gospel,   Jesus   challenges   his   disciples   to  trust  the  Father’s  promise  to  give  them  eternal  happiness  in   His   kingdom.   Using   the   master-­‐thief   parable   Jesus  warns   us   to   be   on   our   guard   so   that   the   devil,  may   not  steal   our   treasure   of   Divine   grace   or   relationship   with  God   by   his   temptations.   Using   the   master-­‐servant  parable,  Jesus  reminds  us  always  to  do  the  will  of  God  by  obeying   Jesus’   commandment   of   love,   offering   humble  and  sacrificial  service  to  others.  

We  always  need  to  be  prepared  to  meet  Our  Lord  as   our   just   and  merciful   judge.   Let  us  always   remember  the   words:   "Behold,   I   stand   at   the   door   and   knock.   If  anyone  hears  my  voice  and  opens  the  door,  I  will  enter  his  house   and   dine   with   him   and   he   with   me"   (Revelation  3:20).   Since   nobody   is   sure   about   the   time   and  circumstances   of   his   or   her   death   we   must   be   ever  prepared  to  face  Jesus  our  Lord  and  Savior  as  our  Judge  at  the  moment  of  our  death  to  give  an  account  of  our  lives.    

Jesus,   help  me   to   grow   in   holiness   and   be   with  me  in   the  difficult  moments  of  my  life   to  remain   in  your  Grace  and  be  ready  always  to  see  you  face  to  face.  

Fr.  Mariadas  Chatla  

Thank  You  Furniture  Movers!  Thank   you   to   those   parishioners   who   helped  move   furniture   at   our   St.   John’s   School   this   past  week!
