                                   SOME THOUGHTS ON TODAY’S GOSPEL                Even in our darkest hour the Lord does not abandon us. His eye always upon us He watches over us night and day. In today’s reading Jesus speaks of being on our guard for we do not know the day or the hour when we will be called to Him. But if we take his words to heart and stay close to Him as we journey, we have nothing to fear. His gift to us is His presence with us ‘till the end of the world.

 

The 33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time

LITURGY OF THE WORD

1st READING DANIEL 12:1-3

(The Last Judgement)

Daniel describes events that will occur at the end of the world. It will be a time of distress, but the just will live forever in glory while others shall endure horror and disgrace.

 

RESPONSORIAL PSALM 16

(God Our Hope)

You are my inheritance, O Lord!

 

 

2nd READING HEBREWS 10:11-14, 18

(Jesus in Glory)

Jesus, unlike other priests, offered only one sacrifice for sin and took his place forever at God’s right hand. He has perfected those who are being sanctified.

 

THE GOSPEL OF MARK 13:24-32

(The Last Judgment)

Jesus tells about the end of the world- the darkening of the sun, moon and stars. Then the Son of Man will come in glory. Learn from the signs of the fig tree. No one knows the exact time of this happening.
