Fourth Sunday of Easter
Today’s Gospel is both comforting and challenging! Jesus likens himself to a Shepherd. A Shepherd knows and calls his own sheep by name, leading them in and out to pasture. Sheep recognize the voice of their shepherd. Imagine in your prayer, Jesus calling you by your name, inviting you to follow him. Do you recognize his voice? Are you willing to confidently follow him where he leads? If your confidence is weak, reread the scriptures and listen again to the words of consolation and encouragement: “you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit” - “you are at my side” - “your rod and your staff give me courage” “I came so that they might have life and have it more abundantly .” This week be open to the voice of the Good Shepherd praying for grace to be responsive to His call.

NIECH BÓG WAS BŁOGOSŁAWI I CHRONI W NADCHODZĄCYM TYGODNIU.
GOD BLESS AND KEEP YOU. STAY SAFE.
