32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time

Matthew 25:1-13






*Friends, our Gospel today is the parable that compares the kingdom of
heaven with “ten virgins who with their lamps went out to meet the
bridegroom.” This is an image borrowed from the customs of the time. The
bridesmaids would wait for the groom and, upon his appearance, would
accompany him. Well, this is the Christian community, waiting for Christ
the groom to arrive. Did Jesus tell this parable because he knew that his
Church would be in for a long period of waiting? We are wise in our waiting
if we pray on a regular basis, if we educate ourselves in the faith, if we
participate in the sacraments, especially the Eucharist, if we perform the
corporal and spiritual works of mercy, if we become people of love. We are
foolish in our waiting if we neglect these things. And here is one of the
hardest truths of this parable: the divine life, so cultivated, cannot
simply be shared with another at the last minute. The wise virgins are not
being difficult and self-absorbed when they tell their friends that they
can’t help them. A saint can’t *simply *infuse his life into another; it
just doesn’t work that way. *
