VERSES: Mark 13:24-32

VERSES (Year of Faith)

Mark 13:24-32

The gospel for this Sunday tells us about signs of end times,  skies falling, hunger, chaos etc., but the assurance of the presence of God is there. Coincidentally this year is also associated with a possible end of the world scenario based on the Mayan calendar which refers to "reset" the world. In this scenario, people would usually say that if ever that day comes, they would do good to their family and friends. But why only when we know it still far, why right today where you can't delay doing good for them? Why also delay doing good for yourself (myself included). It's actually almost the  end of the liturgical year and on our way to advent and Christmas (which we look forward to), why first focus on what stage are we right now?
