Today's liturgy centres on the triumph of God and invites us to face the reality of life with faith, not fear. Fr. Vincent Low reminds us, as with the Gospel reading, of the need to stay awake and be prepared, the importance of diligence, and the call to fidelity - especially in difficult times.
The world has always been marked by natural disasters and suffering. Many in countries like Philippines, Taiwan, Indonesia, Japan, and even the United States know this firsthand. These events are not new; yet Christ tells us not to dwell on these signs but to stay close to Him, trusting that He will care for us through every storm. If we live faithfully, we need not fear death or judgement, as a disciple who walks sincerely with Christ can face God without anxiety.
And in a world that shakes, Fr. Vincent reminds us that the Gospel calls us to a faith that stands firm - anchored in Christ, who never abandons His own.
