Please forgive us for not posting anything over the past two weeks. We were on academic break at that time, which meant no allowance. After that, Typhoons Tino and Uwan hit us, and we had no electricity in our area. We lost our phone too. We’re really sorry for that.
The 33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time
Year C calls us to reflect on our actions and the end times. The readings
remind us of the importance of staying faithful and diligent.
- Judgment Day: Malachi speaks of a
fierce day when the arrogant and wicked will be punished. This day will
bring justice and healing for those who honor God.
- Hard Work: In 2 Thessalonians, Paul
emphasizes the value of hard work. He warns against idleness and
encourages everyone to earn their keep.
- Future Trials: Jesus predicts the
destruction of the temple and describes future hardships. He speaks of
wars, disasters, and persecution that followers will face.
- Faithfulness in Persecution: Jesus
promises to give wisdom to those who are persecuted for their faith. He
assures them that they will be preserved if they endure these trials.
- Endurance: Endurance is highlighted in
the Gospel as necessary for salvation. Those who stand firm in their faith
will be saved.
The readings for the 33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C encourage us to remain faithful and diligent in our work and faith. They remind us that despite the trials we face, God’s justice and healing will prevail.
