The Word of God, by coming to dwell with us, has opened the path to eternal salvation. Let us pray to him with sincere humility:
Lord, deliver us from evil.
Through the mystery of your incarnation, through your birth and infancy,
— through your whole life, dedicated to the Father:
Lord, deliver us from evil.
Through your labor, your preaching and your journeys,
— through your continual encounters with sinners:
Lord, deliver us from evil.
Through your agony and passion, your cross and desolation,
— through your sufferings, your death and burial:
Lord, deliver us from evil.
Through your resurrection and ascension, through your gift of the Holy Spirit, through your joys and everlasting glory,
— free our departed brothers and sisters, O Lord.
Lord, deliver us from evil.

The Catholic Church traditionally teaches us the Four Last Things (Death, Purgatory, Heaven, Hell) and the Second Coming of Jesus Christ during the Season of Advent. However, many Catholics still avert from such topics because they are frightened of these things. My Reflection this Advent on the End of the World aims to give awareness and more insights into these truths, which we must face sooner or later. My piece also includes a Personal Message to my dear Readers.
