A reflection on Luke 21:34-36
Saturday of the Thirty-Fourth Week in Ordinary Time

No procrastination: Jesus warns us to stay awake and vigilant today—not tomorrow.
Jesus said to his disciples: “Beware that your hearts do not become drowsy from carousing and drunkenness and the anxieties of daily life, and that day catch you by surprise like a trap. For that day will assault everyone who lives on the face of the earth. Be vigilant at all times and pray that you have the strength to escape the tribulations that are imminent and to stand before the Son of Man.”
Luke 21:34-36
Not tomorrow, but today,
Stay awake for Christ the Way.
Traditional Chinese Translation
《不拖延》
不在明日，就在今朝，
為基督之道保持儆醒。
