Lk 21.34-36
Meditatio: “Beware that your hearts to not become drowsy from carousing and drunkenness and the anxieties of daily life and that day catch you by surprise.” Lk 21.34
Oratio: "O God, You k now how easily we are distracted and lose sight of the important things in life.
I remember Jesus urged His disciples to be vigilant about the coming of the end of time less it comes upon them like a trap and they will not be ready to stand with Him.
Grant that I may be always alert to Your commands and not allow anxieties of daily life distract me from You.
I ask this of You, who lives and reigns with Jesus and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever.
Amen.”
Contemplatio: Keep silence and remain in recollection for a few minutes.
Operatio: Reflect on the end of time. Do I keep it in my consciousness? If not, resolve to make it a practice to daily be aware of it and let that awareness spur me on to being ready each day to meet Jesus whenever that may be.
