Prayer is Love, I want to Love

Jesus’ Warning, “Be Ready”

Extract

Sign: Owl Eyes

Jesus said to his disciples: “Stay awake! For you do not know on which day your Lord will come”. (Matthew 24:42)

Thought

Staying awake means, being in a state of grace and free from sin at all times. That may seem difficult but, the alternative isn’t an option.

Reflection

Lord Jesus, I pray that when you come, you will find me doing your work and purified by your Holy Spirit. Lord hear my prayer.

Prayer: Solace

May Christ support us all the day long,
till the shadows lengthen,
and the evening comes,
and the busy world is hushed,
and the fever of life is over
and our work is done.
Then in his mercy
may he give us a safe lodging,
and holy rest
and peace at the last. Amen.
