The Most Holy Trinity - Holy Angels` Roman Catholic Church
208 - 2 33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time November 15, 2015 Followers of Christ live in the radical trust that tribulations give way to greater glory. Next Sunday is the end of our liturgical year. We can look back over the course of the year and discover that we have celebrated our entire story – from creation to the end times. Most importantly, we participated in the cycle of the Church year as it rotates around the center of our faith, Jesus Christ – from his first coming as an infant, to his death and resurrection, and we look with hope to his coming in glory. In the readings, we hear of cosmic signs like the dead rising and stars falling from the sky. That might sound like science fiction. But make no mistake; this is not fiction. Christ reminds us that his words shall not pass away. In the Gospel, Jesus describes these signs leading to his coming again – the sun being darkened and the stars falling from the sky. His disciples were struck with fear and confusion. Jesus knows this and so – as in other parables – he speaks about something they can understand: a fig tree. Jesus uses this simple image of the fig tree, and the way it comes to life in the summer. It is not an image of crisis or violence. It is a sign of new life after winter. Our times of personal trial teach us how to be faithful and faith-filled. We may not always get it right, but these times prepare us for that time – the days that Jesus describes. We need not be afraid. We have an eternal high priest who, through his own sacrifice, gives us his body and blood. We are being perfected through this body and blood for his coming again. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end. As we prepare to receive his body and blood, let our prayer be the words of today’s psalm: Lord, show us the path of life, the fullness of joy in your presence, the delight to be at your right hand forever.
