life and Life

Jesus wants his disciples to be fully awake and ready to discern the sign of the arrival of Jesus like they would be attentive to the sprouting of new leaves on the fig tree. Fresh green small leaves symbol of new hope. In reality the signs of hope are disastrous events of all kinds. That bring death - corporal physical. Very striking and puzzling. Then it clicked that he calls us to have our utmost trust in God - when the physical world collapses on us and threatens our physical life, we are called to remember about that real Life which is the Life of the Soul and to remember its Fruits. Everything and everyone - even blood relations - threatens us but God never. And in Him we must trust. Many lives of the Saints come to mind - all the jelousies and threats and sufferings that came on them. But they trusted in Jesus and their Boat victoriously faced any storm undamaged. The Soul I mean ''think also of all the physical sufferings''.

The last Words before the Battle

Most certainly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all things are accomplished. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will by no means pass away. The real fear should be for the crushing of that temple that is our soul - that is the real death. Starts off with an horror film set of the events a catastrophic series of devastating scenarios but the longest warning regards the fear that his disciples might feel when standing up for him/God. Have Faith he says and you shall then be saved. Be prayerful grow strength, hold on to the Lord and His heavenly Kingdom and do not be burdened down by earthly attachments. Then you shall be saved - ready to be lifted up as light as the Dove that lightly [`light` same spelling two meanings...] descended on Mary and became flesh.So we too if light and pure can ascend to heaven when dead - ours like His resurrection. Provided our souls are Alive. A very Rich empowering Last Supper like the Words in that episode. With such Words you truly feel how only two swords can suffice.

Why in the absence of the multitude? hiding away like Satan - vile - not wanting to be seen? afraid of all those who supported Jesus?
