Daily Lectionary Reading: Psalm 80:1-7, 17-19 (NRSV, The Message); Isaiah 64:1-9 (NRSV, The Message); 1 Corinthians 3:1-9 (NRSV, The Message); Mark 13:24-37 (NRSV, The Message)
“Take a lesson from the fig tree. When its branches are tender and its leaves sprout, you know that summer is near. In the same manner, when you see all these things, know that the Promised One is near, at the very door."
Mark 13:32-33 (Inclusive Language Bible)
Mark 13:32-33 (Inclusive Language Bible)
How we might undertand this, reading it now, is this...the Promised One is always near, always at the door. The signs are there if we have eyes to see them.
Another lesson we can take from the fig tree is just to keep growing, keep sprouting. The fig tree doesn't worry about when the summer is. It just grows in its season.
