In Spite of Our Weakness

For 13 May 2024, Monday of the seventh week of Easter, based on John 16:29-33
Jesus’ disciples said, ‘Yes, now you are speaking plainly, not in any figure of speech! Now we know that you know all things, and do not need to have anyone question you; by this we believe that you came from God.’ Jesus answered them, ‘Do you now believe? The hour is coming, indeed it has come, when you will be scattered, each one to his home, and you will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone because the Father is with me. I have said this to you, so that in me you may have peace. In the world you face persecution. But take courage; I have conquered the world!’

My dear Louis Mary,
You never fail to give us wisdom from the Good News of the Gospel. I am grateful for you and your reflections of our human weakness and how Jesus is always loving us unconditionally. The Spirit gives us grace to renew our love and trust in him and carry on in our spiritual life. We have only to open our hearts in love to him.
Blessings on your continued preaching,
Love, Brigid
