For today’s installment of our Advent Meditation series, our brother Jerome Quiring provides commentary on Lk 21:25-36. Take a listen or click here to download.
“And there will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and on the earth distress of nations in perplexity because of the roaring of the sea and the waves, people fainting with fear and with foreboding of what is coming on the world. For the powers of the heavens will be shaken. And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. Now when these things begin to take place, straighten up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.” And he told them a parable: “Look at the fig tree, and all the trees. As soon as they come out in leaf, you see for yourselves and know that the summer is already near. So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that the kingdom of God is near. Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all has taken place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away. “But watch yourselves lest your hearts be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and cares of this life, and that day come upon you suddenly like a trap. For it will come upon all who dwell on the face of the whole earth. But stay awake at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.”
Lk 21:25-36
While an elder-in-training in the brotherhood, JR is also a coordinator in one of the University Districts of Ang Ligaya ng Panginoon (The Joy of the Lord) and the officer-in-charge of the Greater Manila Area operations of our college outreach called Christ's Youth in Action. His main interests nowadays gravitate towards producing a podcast on Filipino students, psychology and leadership. On the side, he enjoys playing ultimate frisbee and still deciding whether to take the running bandwagon more seriously.
