Your daily Gospel reflection...


Friday of the Seventh Week of Easter

John 21:15-19
*Friends, today’s Gospel tells of *the great engagement between the risen
Jesus and Peter. Peter knows his sin—he betrayed Jesus three times.



*But Jesus brings him through the process of repentance and gives him the
key to transformation. Three times Peter denied the Lord, and so three
times Jesus asks him to reaffirm his faith: "Simon, son of John, do you
love me?" Notice that Christianity is not a set of ideas or convictions or
principles. It is a relationship with a person. Do you love Jesus? Has he
become your friend? When Simon says yes, Jesus tests him: "Feed my lambs;
tend my sheep; feed my sheep." The test of love is action. Are we willing
to do what Jesus did? Are we willing to go on mission on his behalf? Then
we hear that wonderful closing section: "As a young man you fastened your
belt and went about as you pleased; but when you are older you will stretch
out your hands, and another will tie you fast and carry you off against
your will." The ultimate test of discipleship is our willingness to abandon
our egos and be carried by a power greater than ourselves.*
