Dear Friend in the Lord,
“Fig Tree” – Faith”: In today’s Gospel, Jesus proclaimed to His disciples, that as the ‘fig tree’s budding points to the assurance of summer; the trials and persecutions of our faith, are signs, that our “Redemption” is imminent. Ponder on, “Always trust in the Lord’s Providence, and be strengthened in our faith, hope and love for Him, who never fails.”
Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
Luke 21:29-33
Jesus told his disciples a parable, ‘Look at the fig tree and indeed every tree. As soon as you see them bud, you know that summer is now near. So with you when you see these things happening: know that the kingdom of God is near.
‘I tell you solemnly, before this generation has passed away all will have taken place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.’
