Wake up!
Wake up!
This word speaks of the responsibility which the Lord gives you. It is the duty to be vigilant, not to allow the pressures, the temptations and the sins of ourselves or others to dull our sensitivity to the beauty of Holiness, to the joy of the Gospel
Today's responsorial psalm invites us constantly to be glad and sing for joy. No one who sleeps can sing, dance or rejoice. It's no good when I see young people who are sleeping. No! Wake up! Go! Go Forward! Dear young people, God, our God, has blessed us.
From him we have received mercy. Assured of God's love, go out to the world so that, by the mercy shown to you, they – your friends, co-workers, neighbors, countrymen, everyone on this great continent – may now receive the mercy of God. It is by His mercy that we are saved.
Asian youth, Wake up!
[Damiano Affinito:]
Ego sum resurrectio et vita
Qui credit in me
Etiam si mortuus fuerit, vivet
Et omnis qui vivit et credit in me
Non morietur in aeternum
Ego sum resurrectio et vita
