On Today’s Gospel

Are we still Sunday Church goers? Are we still self centred individuals? Selfish? Superficial volunteers? Non-participative in the Eucharistic celebration? Lukewarm?

Or are we truly disciples of Jesus? Do we make a daily resolve to always love God in all we do? Do we choose to love first our neighbour? A love that would find us willing to lay down our life for a friend? Where sacrifice is not vocalised, rather a choice to be in the service for love in love.

May our abundant fruits bring honour and Glory to our Lord whom we follow and serve. Amen

GOSPEL John 12:24–26

Jesus said to his disciples:“Amen, amen, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains just a grain of wheat; but if it dies, it produces much fruit. Whoever loves his life loses it, and whoever hates his life in this world will preserve it for eternal life. Whoever serves me must follow me, and where I am, there also will my servant be. The Father will honor whoever serves me.”
