12th Sunday - C


Commentary


The Christ of God

The disciples see Jesus at prayer.

And when Jesus asks for their opinion of who he is, Peter says, “The Christ of God.”

Peter and the other disciples recognize Jesus' identity through his communication with God.

At this point in their following of Jesus, they do not fully know what that means. They are not ready for the cross.

Yet, they know Jesus is the Christ of God.

So it is with me. I can only become my true self when I am in touch with God, my heavenly Father.

Happy Father's Day to all fathers.  Thank you for leading us to God, the heavenly Father.
