With this First Sunday of Advent we begin reading from the Gospel According to Mark, but we jump way ahead to the end of chapter 13. This chapter is followed immediately by Mark's account of the Passion. In verses 33-39 Jesus tells us to be on the watch for the coming of the Son of Man. Three times in five verses he uses the word "watch." We must watch also and be ready when Jesus comes to us in our own death.
