Without fear
If you loved me you would have been glad to know that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I (John 14, 28)
Jesus said to his disciples: “If anyone loves me he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we shall come to him and make our home with him. Those who do not love me do not keep my words. And my word is not my own: it is the word of the one who sent me. I have said these things to you while still with you; but the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything and remind you of all I have said to you. Peace I bequeath to you, my own peace I give you, a peace the world cannot give, this is my gift to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid. You heard me say: I am going away, and shall return. If you loved me you would have been glad to know that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I. I have told you this now before it happens, so that when it does happen you may believe”.(John 14, 23-29)
The divine persons of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit come to dwell in those who put the word of God into practice. For this reason, the disciples of Jesus must not let themselves succumb to anxiety, but have their hearts filled with the peace of the Lord. Do you feel His peace in your heart?
