DAILY GOSPEL AND COMMENTARY:
I KNOW THE FATHER
BECAUSE HE SENT ME.
I KNOW THE FATHER
BECAUSE HE SENT ME.

Jn 7:1–2, 10, 25–30
(10) But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, he himself also went up, not openly but as it were in secret.
(25) Some of the inhabitants of Jerusalem said, “Is he not the one they are trying to kill? And look, he is speaking openly and they say nothing to him. Could the authorities have realized that he is the Christ? But we know where he is from. (27)When the Christ comes, no one will know where he is from.”(28) So Jesus cried out in the temple area as he was teaching and said, “You know me and also know where I am from. Yet I did not come on my own, but the one who sent me, whom you do not know, is true. (29) I know him, because I am from him, and he sent me.” (30) So they tried to arrest him, but no one laid a hand upon him, because his hour had not yet come.
How about us? Perhaps we could say that we believe in Jesus, his origin and his mission. However, our actions belie our faith for isn’t it true that every sin is a contempt of Jesus, of his precepts, of his doctrine, of his gifts and promises? How often do they oppose Christ and His mandates, our disordered passions, and merely human outlook
Let us ask for light from God to examine ourselves, make an authentic review of life, repent of our infidelities and our sins. In this way we will prepare ourselves for the Easter with all sincerity of heart and we will begin a new life, that of Christ.
- Jesus is the True Face of God and through His Incarnation, he manifested God, His Mercy and Love, and all His works to the entire humanity.
- Let us therefore thank God for revealing Himself to us through His Son, and for this, may we always be convinced that God loves us, is always with us, and will never abandon us; for He is truly present in the Holy Eucharist, in His Church, in the soul in grace, and in all those who are suffering.
- Lord God Almighty, thank you, forgive us, have mercy on your people, and help us more: we love You.
A great day ahead. Stay safe and God bless,
