Wednesday October 21st: Each day your last!

Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

The Diocese of Port of Spain shared a reflection on Wednesday, October 21, regarding the importance of living with spiritual readiness.

Drawing on the Gospel of Luke 12:39-48, the reflection encourages believers to be ready, faithful, and prudent servants. The text suggests that instead of merely seeking epic memories, people should focus on a higher purpose by denying themselves daily, carrying their crosses, and maintaining forgiving hearts.

The reflection emphasizes seeking God's will and praying for the courage to live a life pleasing to Him, particularly in private moments. It concludes that being prepared for the unexpected coming of the Lord brings joy to the soul, while being found unprepared or unwilling carries spiritual consequences.
