Never Alone…
By now on this Saturday of Easter week, in the Gospels, Jesus has been seen in the garden, in a house, travelling on the road. In today’s reading, he is encountered in Galilee. The disciples were being assured of his risen presence. He talked with them, walked with them, shared food with them. They were beginning to learn that he is very much alive and with them.
Seek to realize his presence throughout each day by calling his name in love. Remember he said
‘anyone who comes to me I will never drive them away’
(John 6:37).
Come, rejoice in the Lord.
Jesus, Lord of my life, you are with me:
in your presence is fullness of joy.
Lord of life, you come down to lift us up:
you became human that we might share in the divine;
You died that we might rise to life immortal.
Help us to live as those who believe and trust in you and grant that we may live to your praise and glory.
Amen

God, how I want to be Your living reflection…
Who is God to me?
Is everything I do done for Him and because of Him?
Do I know how to tell Him about my problems and consult when I do not know what to do? Who do I listen to in moments of indecision and life choices?
Do I trust and believe that Jesus, by His Passion and Resurrection, gave me eternal life and that no sin is greater than God’s grace?
Do I believe that in a moment, in the Sacrament of reconciliation, I will be speaking with God?
Do I reverently utter the name of God?
Do I try to deepen my faith?
How is my prayer?
Do I treat prayer as an encounter with God?
Do I try to discover the mystery of faith?
Do I read the Bible?
Is it a source of strength to me in difficult times and an inspiration to life?
Do everything with intent,
And know that every little thing
You do is
Important.
