Illusions about Our Lord Jesus Christ
Jesus is the Suffering Servant of the Lord. Those who truly know him do not have illusions about him. The Teacher...
Afraid at Night, Uneasy at Daylight
Jesus is and will always be with us until the end of the age. We put our trust in him and in his words when we are...
Eat and Drink for Everlasting Life
Jesus gives us his flesh to eat and his blood to drink. He fills and strengthens us pilgrims who are on the way to eternal life. Jesus gives his disciples his body to eat, and asks them, “Do this in remembrance of me.” Then, he gives them his blood to drink, and tells...
Be Love to Know God Who Is Love
Out of love, Jesus lays down his life for us sinners. No one, then, loves us more. He is the best proof that to be God is to be love. Nicodemus comes to Jesus at night. “Night” may mean he seeks light. Is he wrestling with “to be or not to be?” A question of salvation...
Flame of Blazing and Renewing Fire
Jesus is Lord! But we can say this only by the Holy Spirit. And only his flame can renew the face of the earth. The Holy Spirit comes with the strength of a driving wind that fills the whole house where the disciples are. And a tongue of fire or flame rests on each of...
Raise the Poor and the Helpless
Jesus has gone up heaven. And from his throne he looks down on earth to lift up the helpless from the dust and raise the poor from the dump (Ps 113, 6-7). Jesus tells his followers to wait for the Holy Spirit. And they quickly ask if it is time for him to raise up...

Just like his Father, Jesus gives justice to those in need and defends the rights of the poor. Still and all, he gets them another Defender. Jesus lifts up his own. They are sad as he says goodbye. And they have the hunch that woe is coming. Is it time to strike the...
Show Jesus so as to Show the Father
Jesus reveals the Father. We Christians must be like him to show him and the Father. The followers of Jesus show worry. For he tells them that one of them will betray him. And another, who says he will die for him, will deny him. Besides, they recently heard him speak...
Center of Our Whole Being and Our Life
Jesus is our only gate. And no one should be more in the center of our life than he. The shepherd is the center of attention of the sheep. For he leads them. He leads them out, and then walks ahead of them. So, no wonder that the sheep recognize and heed his voice as...
Remember Jesus, His Works and Words
Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God and the Son of Mary, has risen! We should remember him and also preach him as our Good News (2 Tim 2, 8). We Christians love Jesus Christ although we have not seen him. And even though we do not see him now yet we believe in him...
Community of Christian Believers
Christ is alive! And those who keep him in the center belong to his community. They have the breath of the Holy Spirit and are true to their mission. Peter and the other disciple saw, and the latter believed besides. Mary Magdalen also told the disciples, “I have seen...
