Friday of the 6th week of Eastertide
Saint John of Ávila, Priest, Doctor
Gospel – John 16:20-23
“I shall see you again, and your hearts will be full of joy, and that joy no one shall take from you”. In these words of Jesus we can see that it’s about heaven. When we are in heaven, no one can take away the joy from us. And also Jesus says, “When that day comes,you will not ask me any questions”. This is also about heaven because when we are in heaven, we will understand everything and we will not have any more questions. Our joy will be perfect and we will not have any questions. But this is not only about the heaven, but it’s also about our Christian life. Because our Christian life is a life with Jesus and when we are with Jesus we are in heaven. When we are with Jesus nothing can take away our joy. When we are with Jesus, our faith in Him, take away all the questions. These are day when we are praying and waiting for the coming of the Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit makes the presence of Jesus Christ in our daily life and also gives us the grace of faith in Jesus Christ. Let’s reflect: Let’s pray for the Holy Spirit so that we can live in the presence of Jesus Christ.
