Don't Get Ready, Stay Ready

Through the Parable of the Ten Virgins, we’re reminded that readiness isn’t about scrambling when the alarm sounds, but living prepared, filled, and faithful through every delay. The same warning that tested the bridesmaids’ devotion still speaks to the Church today: delay exposes who’s truly filled. Stay watchful, stay working, and keep your lamp burning bright — because when the Bridegroom comes, it’ll be too late to get ready.
