Blessed be the Lord and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessings in the heavenly places, even as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before Him. He destined us before Him in love to be His sons(and daughters) through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of His will, to the praise of His glorious grace which He freely bestowed on us in the Beloved.

The Solemnity of Christ the King
Lectionary: 161

Reading 1 Dn 7:13-14

As the visions during the night continued, I saw
one like a Son of man coming,
on the clouds of heaven;
when he reached the Ancient One
and was presented before him,
the one like a Son of man received dominion, glory, and kingship;
all peoples, nations, and languages serve him.
His dominion is an everlasting dominion
that shall not be taken away,
his kingship shall not be destroyed! AMEN!

It was a bit disappointing when the lector misread not just one of this Feast Day’s readings but Both of them! I feel slightly cheated and decided to post the 1st Reading for your enjoyment! Viva el Cristo Rey! :D

“Again I say, watch and pray, because the Lord is on his way and you know neither the day nor the hour when He will knock at your door. Do not squander your time on earthly vanities and concerns, rather, be concerned to resume the road which will lead you to the gates of the new creation. Be ready and prepared, because all will come suddenly, and then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all tribes of the earth mourn: and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with much power and majesty.”- (Matthew Ch.24 Vs.30).
