Showing posts with the label mirror

Monday of the 5th week of Eastertide

Mirrors John 14:21-26 Mirrors are amazing equipment.  They have the capacity to reflect back images. We are mirrors.  We mirror the very presence of Jesus or the lack of it. We need to be mirrors and not be broken glasses.  At all times, let our lives reflect the living Lord through the following: 1. Obedience - follow Jesus' every move as his mirrors the Father's love 2. Communion - we work for unity with the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit and with one another. 3. Mission - let us produce other mirrors for Christ.  
4th Thursday of Lent Isn't it remarkable that God allows people to be His mirrors?  In the first reading, Moses reflects God's concern for His people. In the gospel, Jesus mirrors His Father's love for all of us.  John reflects Jesus' love. This coming Holy Week, strive not just to ask for forgiveness.  Rather, aim more to reflect the love and action of Jesus.  Realize the meaning of Comunio when Jesus would suffer for our sake just to make us one with the Father.  We can already live this Comunio in this very world by being one with God and with one another, when all our actions would gear towards building that community of love and life.
