Easter Friday
Gospel – John 21:1-14
“At these words ‘It is the Lord’, Simon Peter, who had practically nothing on, wrapped his cloak round him and jumped into the water”. The moment Simon Peter hears that “It’s the Lord”, he jumped into the water. This is the kind of relationship which comes out of the heart in faith. This is not only a faith in Jesus Christ who is Risen but also a faith in the word of his brother John. This is double trust: The trust in the Lord who is Risen. It’s also trust in John who can testify the presence of Jesus. There are no more calculations or logical thinking. There is just the wish to reach to Jesus. He jumped into the water. The faith in Jesus Christ Risen is about the relationship of trust. It’s just trust, and action based on that trust. No mor questions or answers. Act according to the trust of your heart. Trust in the love of Jesus Christ to be present in our life and trust in the testimony of my brothers and sisters. Let’s reflect: Easter is the trust in the love of Jesus Christ to be present in our life and trust in the testimony of my brothers and sisters.
