Reflection on Today’s Readings

If your life ended tonight would you be ready to meet Jesus? Does where you invest your time, talent, and treasure make clear that living the values of Jesus is your number one priority? Or would they make clear that you value someone or something else more? Paying careful attention to how we spend our time or where we invest our emotional energy provides a good idea about an honest answer to these questions.

Sometimes the needs of those we love or our own livelihood require us to work more hours than we’d like. Sometimes the needs of those we love or our own physical or emotional need requires us to have less time for prayer or service or the activities that give us rest and refreshment. However, at other times, our desire for more or our self-centeredness take time away from what is of real value in the end, living the life of faith.

Why live this or any day as if it were our last? Because it just might be. Realizing our hope to dwell with God forever in the heavenly city prepared for us requires living the values to which Jesus, the prophets, and saints gave flesh, the values that can help us be ready for the Master’s return, whenever he comes.

As the reading from Wisdom proclaims, knowing the night of Passover helped our ancestors in faith have courage to journey out of Egypt into the unknown and promised land. So too, although we do not know the time or the hour we will meet Jesus, we know that he has promised to return. If he returns today, what will it take for you to be ready?

“Loving God, you have chosen us as your people. Wake us up. Shake us up. Help us evaluate our lives to live the values of your Son, Jesus, in order to be ready to meet him with joy and peace every day you give us. Amen.”

Stewardship: Sharing our Time, Talent, and Treasure!

“For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be.” Luke 12:34

Jesus encourages us to build up our treasure in heaven. The world encourages us to build up our treasure in real estate, investments, and material goods. How much time are you investing in building up a worldly treasure? How much time are you investing in building up a heavenly treasure? To invest more time in the things of heaven, you must let go of some of the things of this world.
