The resurrection of Jesus brings hope and life as we turn away from our sins and embrace the living Lord.  No matter what's happened in the past, may we draw strength from God's love and walk in the light of Christ's amazing grace.  The Lord is risen!  He is risen, indeed.

Mar 27, 2018

In the heart of the Last Supper we see two clear examples of human weakness.  Both Judas and Peter will betray Jesus, and their examples offer us two different responses to sin.  Which option will we choose?

Mar 25, 2018

We read the Passion of Jesus Christ so that we remember each year the Lord's sacrifice for our eternal salvation.  May the Precious Blood of the Savior wash us clean and renew our hearts for this life...and the life to come.

Caiaphas the high priest prophesied when he said that "it is better for you that one man should die for the people."  The death of Christ on the Cross takes our place for the sins that we commit which warrant death.  May we accept his saving sacrifice and offer our hearts to the Lord.

Jesus points to the good works of His Heavenly Father as an indication of His identity as the Son of God.  What's more, we know of His greatest work: His death on the Cross that frees us from sin and opens the door to eternal life.

As Jesus claims his divinity in the Gospel of John we are challenged to consider how our lives conform to Christ.  He is our Lord and His example guides and directs our lives in all things.

Shadrach, Meschach and Abednego faced the fiery furnace with their faith in God. Their example reveals the strength and conviction that come when God's word dwells in our hearts and directs our lives.  May this holy fire of faith burn in our hearts!

United in love with his heavenly Father, Jesus teaches the people that they will know who he is when he has been lifted up.  As we gaze upon Christ on the Cross may we recognize our hope as we turn from our sins and accept his forgiveness.

Only after the grain of wheat dies can new life begin; this process from death to life shapes both our physical and spiritual lives.  What doesn't belong in our hearts?  What needs to "die" so that Jesus Christ can raise up new life within us?  The Lord offers the grace...may we walk with Him from death to new life.

John's Gospel offers a glimpse at the division that occurs among the crowd - all who are trying to figure out who Jesus is - as doubt, isolation and discord rise to the surface.  Division is part of our human experience; in light of today's reading we have the opportunity to consider how we work to unite with one another in a spirit of peace.

The Gospel of John reveals that people are questioning the identity of Jesus and trying to kill him.   Who is he?  He is Christ the Lord, the Son of God who comes from the Father to save and set us free.

Jesus speaks about several different sources that offer testimony on his behalf.  It begs a question: Do our lives offer a similar witness?  Does what we say and do give testimony that Christ is the Lord of our hearts?

Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com

Mar 14, 2018

The Gospel of John reveals the relationship between Jesus and his heavenly Father, establishing Christ as the Just Judge before whom we will all stand.  Our opportunity is to take each day as a precious gift, reconciling our hearts and seeking to follow the Lord with all our heart.

The love of Jesus is a light that shines in the darkness of our world.  As we draw near to Christ we open our hearts and allow his love to fill and flow through our lives.

Jesus takes the 10 Commandments and simplifies them down to two.  This focus allows us to concentrate our efforts on what is most important in the life of faith: loving God and one another.
