“If You Love Me...” Gospel Reflection Based on John 14:15-21

We have just heard the words of Jesus:  “If you love me, you will keep my commandments.  And I will pray the Father, and he will give you another Counsellor, to be with you for ever, the Spirit of truth” (Jn 14:15-17a).  With these words Jesus reveals the profound link between faith and the profession of Divine Truth, between faith and dedication to Jesus Christ in love, between faith and the practice of a life inspired by the commandments.  All three dimensions of faith are the fruit of the action of the Holy Spirit.  This action is manifested as an inner force that harmonizes the hearts of the disciples with the Heart of Christ and makes them capable of loving as he loved them.  Hence faith is a gift, but at the same time it is a task.

Christ says: “If you love me ... ” Faith does not just mean accepting a certain number of abstract truths about the mysteries of God, of man, of life and death, of future realities. Faith consists in an intimate relationship with Christ, a relationship based on love of him who loved us first (cf. 1 Jn 4:11), even to the total offering of himself. “God shows his love for us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us” (Rom 5:8). What other response can we give to a love so great, if not that of a heart that is open and ready to love?

But what does it mean to love Christ? It means trusting him even in times of trial, following him faithfully even on the Via Crucis, in the hope that soon the morning of the Resurrection will come. Entrusting ourselves to Christ, we lose nothing, we gain everything. In his hands our life acquires its true meaning.

Love for Christ expresses itself in the will to harmonize our own life with the thoughts and sentiments of his Heart. This is achieved through interior union based on the grace of the Sacraments, strengthened by continuous prayer, praise, thanksgiving and penance. We have to listen attentively to the inspirations that he evokes through his Word, through the people we meet, through the situations of daily life. To love him is to remain in dialogue with him, in order to know his will and to put it into effect promptly.Excerpted from Homily by His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI, Warsaw, 26 May 2006 http://www.vatican.va/content/benedict-xvi/en/homilies/2006/documents/hf_ben-xvi_hom_20060526_varsavia.html

Kindness is my only guiding star. 

In its light, I sail a straight route,

I have my motto written on my sail:

Sixth Sunday of Easter May 17, 2020

Prayer in LonelinessSweet and loving St. Rita of Cascia, I entreat your prayers in battling this

loneliness. Ask the Lord to enable me to seek out those who need me, the many who love me. Ask God to help me feel that love and hold it close to my heart so that I never feel alone in His grace.

Amen.

A Twenty-Four-Hour Prayer from Mother Teresa: In My Own Words

There are some people who, in order not to pray, use as an excuse the fact that life is so hectic that it prevents them from praying.

This cannot be. Prayer does not demand that we interrupt our work, but that we continue working as if it were a prayer.

It is not necessary to always be meditating, nor to consciously experience the sensation that we are talking to God, no matter how nice that would be. What matters is being with him, living in him, in his will. To love with a pure heart, to love everybody, especially to love the poor, is a twenty-four-hour prayer.Mother Teresa (1996). Prayer. In J. L. González-Balado (Ed). Mother Teresa: In My Own Words, Gramercy Books, New York.

St. Rita of Cascia Feast Day May 22

The mystery of the Most Holy Trinity is the central mystery of Christian faith and life. It is the mystery of God in himself. It is therefore the

source of all the other mysteries of faith, the light that enlightens them. It is the most fundamental and essential teaching in the “hierarchy of

the truths of faith”.56 The whole history of salvation is identical with the history of the way and the means by which the one true God, Father,

Son and Holy Spirit, reveals himself to men “and reconciles and unites with himself those who turn away from sin”.57 (CCC, 234)
