INTERPRETING
THESE TIMES
Enter into
the stillness of God within.
Reading ”You know how to interpret the face
of the earth and the sky. How is it you
do not know how to interpret these times?” (Luke 12:54-59)
Reflection. The whole life of Jesus is one urgent
drive to get across to people that a new age has come: an age of fulfilment of
all their deepest hopes and desires. There is now an opportunity to bring to
birth the hidden, unformed, confused longings
of the heart. “Our hearts are restles …” But, “Come to me and you will find rest.” Yet we are often satisfied with a superficial
non-threatening interpretation. What
the saints do is to show us the radical nature of what Jesus is calling us to. We cannot get there by our efforts
alone. He promises to show us the Way.
Prayer. Lord, help us to follow the way
you are inviting us. Amen.
