Readings: Wisdom 6: 12-16; 1
Thessalonians 4: 13-14; Matthew 25: 1-13
Selected Passage
“While they went off to buy it, the
bridegroom came and those who were ready went into the wedding feast with him.
Then the door was locked. Afterwards the other virgins came and said, 'Lord, Lord,
open the door for us!' But he said in reply, 'Amen, I say to you, I do not know
you.' Therefore, stay awake, for you know neither the day nor the hour.” (Mt.
25: 10-13)
Meditation: The
parable tells the wise and the foolish virgins.
Both groups went out to meet the bridegroom that took time in arriving.
The wise ones went out to meet the bridegroom bringing flasks of oil, as well,
while the foolish ones did not. And when the bridegroom arrived, the foolish
ones were not around and they missed him.
We must, then, imitate
the wise virgins who take things seriously, who are prepared to meet the Lord,
anytime when he comes. They are prepared at anytime and they don’t scramble for
things, when it is time to act. We cannot
make God and others wait for us and let us stop being foolish! www.badaliyya.blogspot.com
