This blog intends to provide readers an opportunity to be nourished by the Word of God. It invites readers to read, reflect and pray the Gospel passage that they will hear during the upcoming Sunday's Liturgy. With the commentaries provided, readers have the possibility of studying and meditating on the Word. Finally, readers are invited to share their reflections, thus creating an on-line lectio divina/faith sharing group, and so sustaining each other in the faith and the love for God's Word.
He Saw and Believed
In this short Gospel passage, the word “saw” is used four times.
Three people “saw” the empty tomb. Mary thought that “they have taken the Lord from the tomb.” Peter – we do not know his response, at least at this point in his journey.
Only the disciple, “whom Jesus loves,” believed as a result of what he saw.
We all see. May God give us the eyes of faith.
