Matthew 25:1-13:
Again, the uncertainty of the hour of the final coming thus the need to be vigilant is explained in the parable of the wise and foolish bridesmaids. The wise ones recognize that the bridegroom could arrive at any time so they remain awake and prepared to greet him. The foolish bridesmaids second guess his return and are caught by surprise.
If I am not vigilant I will miss you in the ordinary moments of my life. I pray to be mindful of your constancy and to pay attention to your promptings.
