Your redemption is at hand.

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

Today the USA celebrates a day of Thanksgiving – a day the early pilgrims shared with the American Indians who helped them survive the winter months of New England —all the best for you, America. 

We are encouraged: “Stand erect and raise your heads because your redemption is at hand.” All “these signs” are just a reminder to put our trust in Him. He knows what happened, why it happened when it finished, and where it leads us. “Redemption is at hand,” we are His children, and He protects us. 

“Stand erect and raise your heads because your redemption is at hand.” (Gospel Acclamation)
