GOD SO LOVED YOU!

GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD. 

"God so loved the world that he gave his only-­begotten Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life.

"For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him.

"Whoever believes in him will not be condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the name of the only-begotten Son of God.

"And this is the verdict, that the light came into the world, but people preferred darkness to light, because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come toward the light, so that his works might not be exposed. But whoever lives the truth comes to the light, so that his works may be clearly seen as done in God." (John 3: 16 - 21).

Wednesday 10th April 2024 in 2nd Week of Easter Season. 

We have for our reflection one of the most known verses in the Bible. 

"God so loved the world that he gave his only-­begotten Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life." 

The proof of God’s love is the crucifixion and death of Jesus. 


Our response to this love is to be constrained or to be controlled by this love to love God back. 

The beginning of this loving relationship between God and man is the initiative of God. Our response is faith. Obedience follows faith. In Baptism, we become the children of God and the brothers and sisters of Jesus Christ. Through the transformation of the Holy Spirit, we walk by faith and not by sight or feeling. 

Every Sunday, the Church proclaims the Creed to remind us of what we believe. This repetition of the Credo is life transforming if we enter into it in the spirit of faith. 

The Church learns more and honors the HOLY EUCHARIST in APRIL.
