Dn 12:1-3 In those days, I Daniel, heard this word of the Lord: "At that time there shall arise Michael, the great prince, guardian of your people; it shall be a time unsurpassed in distress since nations began until that time. At that time your people shall escape, everyone who is found written in the book. “Many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake; some shall live forever, others shall be an everlasting horror and disgrace. “But the wise shall shine brightly like the splendor of the firmament, and those who lead the many to justice shall be like the stars forever."
Ps 16:5, 8, 9-10, 11 R. (1) You are my inheritance, O Lord!
O LORD, my allotted portion and my cup,you it is who hold fast my lot.
I set the LORD ever before me; with him at my right hand I shall not be disturbed.
R. You are my inheritance, O Lord!
Therefore my heart is glad and my soul rejoices, my body, too, abides in confidence; because you will not abandon my soul to the netherworld,nor will you suffer your faithful one to undergo corruption.
R. You are my inheritance, O Lord!
You will show me the path to life, fullness of joys in your presence, the delights at your right hand forever.R. You are my inheritance, O Lord!
Mk 13:24-32 Jesus said to his disciples: "In those days after that tribulation the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will be falling from the sky, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken." And then they will see 'the Son of Man coming in the clouds' with great power and glory, and then he will send out the angels and gather his elect from the four winds, from the end of the earth to the end of the sky." Learn a lesson from the fig tree. When its branch becomes tender and sprouts leaves, you know that summer is near. In the same way, when you see these things happening, know that he is near, at the gates. Amen, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things have taken place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away." But of that day or hour, no one knows, neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father."
The gospel is a foretelling of the end times. There is know time that we will say in advance this is when it will be. The word of the Lord will be a guide for the signs that the Lord teaches here are to be seen and that is how I will know. The sun will be dark, there will be stars falling and the Son of Man will be seen coming in the clouds to gather his elect.
The message is what to watch for and also to be one of the elect to be collected by the Son of Man. The word of the Lord stands as witness to what I need to do to be a disciple and one of the elect to be with God at the end times. The world is passing and faith is everlasting. The love of the Lord is my treasure, my inheritance, my jewel beyond compare, my compass in the storm and the meaning in my life.
