Raise your heads

“But when these signs begin to happen, stand erect and raise your heads because your redemption is at hand.” (Lk 21: 28)

“These signs” are not important in this story but the presence of Our Lord—“the Son of Man,” who is coming, and our “redemption [which] is at hand.” The Gospel invites us to “stand erect and raise” our heads and focus on Him, not on signs. He brings us redemption and shows us the way to God.

“Sing and make music to the Lord in your hearts, always thanking God the Father for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.” (Entrance Antiphon)
