Reflection on the Sixth Sunday of Easter

As our journey through the Easter Season has us at the sixth of seven weeks of the season, this Sunday’s Gospel presents Jesus relating with His first followers and us in a very intimate way. However, included in that intimate, personal relationship are God our Creator as well as the Holy Spirit. How important it is to spend time regularly just being with this constant flow of love! How meaningful it is to do our best to grasp in mind, heart and soul what it means to be embraced by a love that knows no bounds and is ever constant. In our pondering, let us realize how treasured we are by the God who created us, by Jesus who revealed the Creator’s love for all people, and by the Holy Spirit who guides us in allowing that love to inspire our every action, decision and choice. What can we say in response but “THANK YOU!”
