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.
The Great Love of God
The Son of God came to live among us. He accepted the death on the cross of a slave. (The Law of Moses forbids crucifixion. The Romans would not use crucifixion to put Roman citizens to death. It was only for slaves).
In so doing, the Son of God, who has no sins, freed us from slavery to sin and makes us children of God.
Let us spend some time during this Holy Week to reflect on the immensity of God’s love for us.
