A Shepherd's Sermon of Mercy
A sacred scripture to reflect upon,
Jn 20:19-31
Lord's resurrection brings good news.
Appearing among His Apostles to strengthen them, in visitation.
A new mercy,
A new faith,
A new life,
A new purpose.
An Apostles Cry of Mercy
Thomas called Didymus, a cry to believe.
A blessing he needed to witness.
Wounds that Thomas desired to touch.
This touch meant so much, because it meant that all would be left behind to follow his resurrected Lord for good.
His Lord obliged him, because He knew the importance of belief.
An awestruck response, "My, Lord! My God!" escaped Thomas.
Yet, '...blessed are those who have not seen and have believed'. Says Our Lord.
Thomas need not worry, because at one point we, followers of Christ, echoed the same desire.
For His mercy endures forever.
Shepherd, Fr.ALJ...
Helped us to understand this new purpose. Increased our belief this day, with an encouraging message of Divine Mercy,
To increase our Divine life within.
To increase our knowing that Christ is the center of our faith.
To increase our knowing that Christ (like His Father, Our Father) breathed 'ruah' upon the Apostles of old, will do the same in our new life of faith.
Easter blessings of mercy and grace...
