ACTS 20:28-38
JOHN 17:11-19

Jesus came to complete the Revelation of God to His people through his
words, miracles, compassion and loving care, courage and justice. This
revelation was culminated in his final act of love on the cross. There
is no other that comes close in comparison to him. Jesus is the
Absolute, Total and Perfect reflection of God brought about in a form
that we, as human beings, can relate to. That is why Jesus is the Way,
the Truth and the Life. Yet he knows that after his departure from
earth there will be many “pretenders to the throne”, “wolves in sheep
clothing”, that would seek to destroy that which he had started.
How then could Jesus’ longing to remain with his disciples after he has
left be addressed? How could he extend that life of Love which he had
shared with his apostles? How could he share the eternal unity of his
Love with us who are finite? The answer is the “Eucharist” which he
instituted at the Last Supper, which brought the meaning of the
Passover meal to a higher level of continuing revelation, one that is
not just ritualized but lived.
We live in an environment with practices, values and mindsets that are
counter to our Christian values. Although the Gospel of Christ
continues to be celebrated through the Eucharist, God’s graces can be
appreciated only if we are willing to accept Jesus wholeheartedly,
mind, heart, body and soul. Have we done that?

Finally,
we pray
for one another, for those who have asked our prayers and for those who
need our prayers the most.
Have a
good day!
