## Readings of the day

- Epistle

  1 Timothy 6:17–21

  **Show the text**

  17 Charge those who are rich in this present world that they not be arrogant, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on the living God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy;

  18 that they do good, that they be rich in good works, that they be ready to distribute, willing to share;

  19 laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold of eternal life.

  20 Timothy, guard that which is committed to you, turning away from the empty chatter and oppositions of what is falsely called knowledge,

  21 which some profess, and thus have wandered from the faith. Grace be with you. Amen.

- Gospel

  Luke 21:28–33

  **Show the text**

  28 But when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is near.”

  29 He told them a parable. “See the fig tree and all the trees.

  30 When they are already budding, you see it and know by your own selves that the summer is already near.

  31 Even so you also, when you see these things happening, know that God’s Kingdom is near.

  32 Most certainly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all things are accomplished.

  33 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will by no means pass away.
