Today's readings emphasize the importance of being spiritually prepared, using the parable of the ten virgins. Jesus teaches that we must always be vigilant and ready for the Lord's return, as we do not know the day or the hour.
Reflection:
The parable of the ten virgins reminds us that spiritual readiness is not something we can borrow from others. Our relationship with God requires personal commitment and ongoing preparation.
Application:
Reflect on your spiritual life and consider whether you are truly prepared for Christ's return. Take practical steps to deepen your relationship with God through prayer, scripture reading, and acts of love.
Prayer:
Lord, help us to remain vigilant and prepared for Your return. Strengthen our faith and guide us to live each day with purpose and readiness. Amen.
