Mothers Day and The Good Shepherd
On Good Shepherd Sunday, also Mother’s Day, motherhood reflects God’s love, guiding us to Jesus, our Good Shepherd. A mother’s sacrificial love, guidance, and protection, though imperfect, mirror God’s providence and find ultimate fulfillment in Jesus, who loves us, knows us intimately, and secures us eternally (John 10:22-30).
The First Pope
God disciplines His disobedient children to protect us and bring us home when we wander.
The Gift of the Holy Spirit
The Gospel focuses on the peace of Jesus Christ’s resurrection—a divine gift sought amidst fears and anxieties. True peace is revealed in John 20:19-31, where Jesus says, “peace be with you,” reconciling us to God. This peace restores our relationship with God, sustains us through life’s challenges, and offers hope for eternal peace as beloved children under His grace.
The Hope of Life
Today, we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, a cornerstone of Christian faith that offers hope for eternal life and transforms our lives. This historical event, evidenced by the empty tomb, the testimony of women, and the disciples’ courage, fulfills our longing for purpose, belonging, and restoration, connecting us to God, His redemptive plan, and fellow believers.
The King of Glory Full of Grace and Truth
Grand entrances set the tone in architecture and life. In Luke 19, Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem fulfills prophecy, revealing Him as the righteous, humble King who brings salvation. Despite mixed reactions, He offers grace and truth, inviting us through faith to embrace His transformative redemption.
The Gospel Profit
Sometimes, we grow discouraged in our relationship with Jesus when we see no worldly gain. This sentiment echoes Malachi 3, where God’s people hardened their hearts, envying the prosperity of the wicked while they struggled. However, God’s promise is far greater—fulfilled through Jesus Christ, the sun of righteousness, who brings healing, remembrance, treasure, and eternal life beyond worldly measure.
Trusting in God’s Unchanging Faithfulness
God’s people faced the accusation of robbing Him due to their cold hearts, lacking joy, peace, and purpose. In love, He called them to return through joyful giving, promising blessings. Similarly, as followers of Christ, we lose joy and peace when giving feels burdensome. Today, God invites us to rediscover worship and discipleship by investing in Him with joy, peace, and hope for our Gospel Mission.
The Relentless Pursuit of a Loving God
God disciplines His disobedient children to protect us and bring us home when we wander.
I Have Loved You
God’s love is the foundation of honest self-awareness and self-assessment. Lent is a time for preparing for Jesus’s death and resurrection through self-assessment. Through Malachi, the Lord called for repentance and reminded His people of His love. Begin a season of self-assessment, repentance, and renewal by rejoicing in God’s love.
Secure for Mission
In Paul’s letter to the Colossians, he reminds us that the Christian life is a mission with Jesus. We need comforting, encouraging, and loving relationships, and are called to live in the world, not separate from it. The church is a mission outpost for sinners, not a country club for the elite. When we fail to live on mission, we miss the fullness of life with Christ.
