As we approach the Feast of Christ the King and the season of Advent, this meditation draws a profound connection between Christ’s kingship and St. Paul’s words on marriage in Ephesians. We reflect on how Jesus rules not by worldly power, but by self-giving love—washing the Church with His blood to make her holy and immaculate. Whether in married life or celibacy, we are invited to imitate this kingly service, taking responsibility for others and helping them shine with the splendour of holiness.
