Friends of the Rosary,
Today’s Gospel (Mt 25:1-13) features the parable of the Kingdom of Heaven and the ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. Five were foolish, and five were wise.
Through the parable, Christ Jesus invites us to “stay awake, for you know neither the day nor the hour.”
At that time, following the Jewish customs, the bridesmaids would wait for the groom and, upon his appearance, accompany him.
This is the Christian community of believers waiting for Christ the groom to arrive.
During this long waiting period, we must be wise and pray, live a sacramental life, be people of love, and educate ourselves in the faith. If we neglect these requirements, we won’t be admitted to the glory of Heaven.
“The divine life, so cultivated, cannot simply be shared with another at the last minute. A saint can’t simply infuse his life into another; it just doesn’t work that way,” explains Bishop Barron.
Ave Maria!
Jesus, I Trust In You!
Come, Holy Spirit, come!
To Jesus through Mary!
