Welcome! This blog contains brief reflections of mine on the Scripture readings for each weekend Mass and other Holy Days, too. These readings follow those used by the Roman Catholic Church in the Revised Common Lectionary, which goes in a three-year cycle. These posts typically appear within a day or two of the specified Mass.

May 21, 2017: Sixth Sunday of Easter
God is doing a great work in saving us, especially by sending the power of the Holy Spirit into us. This is the Advocate Jesus promised would come to be with His disciples, continuing His abiding presence with them always. It gives us reassurance that no matter what troubles we face, we are grounded in the Truth of God. It is this Truth we share when we face hostility, and this Truth that the Holy Spirit works in us so that we are brought alive and make His presence known, as He show our Love for the Father by living out His Love for others. Indeed, by the power of the Holy Spirit, the Life of Jesus lives in us, so that we truly live.
