What If?

What if some of the folks who interpret the Mayan calendar are right? It means we have less than 2 months to live. These people say the world is going to end on December 21 of this year.

I’m not concerned about the world ending on December 21. BUT what if that is The Day?

What would you do if you knew you had less than 2 months to live? What if you have only 2 weeks to go?

Someone once asked St. Ignatius (1491-1556), "What would you do if you knew that the world was going to come to an end tomorrow?" Ignatius replied, "I would go on doing what I’m doing now."

That’s a really good answer, when you think about. We should live each day as if it were our last. In fact, it could be.

Jesus said this (in Matthew 24),

Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

He also said this:

Be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.
