Reflections
GOSPEL:
John
10:1-10
We are all familiar with the
image of Jesus as the Good
Shepherd. But in this reading
from John’s Gospel, Jesus
first refers to himself as
“the gate” through
which the sheep come to safety.
The thieves are those people who
try to enter God’s kingdom
by some other gate. The sheep are
those who recognize Jesus as the
only door to the green pasture of
eternal and abundant
life.
1.)
Think about what an ordinary gate
does. It keeps safe whatever is
in the yard (like small children,
animals, a garden) and keeps out
what might be harmful. How is
Jesus a gate for your life? How
does he keep you safe? What does
he keep in your life? How can you
help others to recognize Jesus as
the gate for their
lives?
2.)
One of God’s gifts to us is
our free will. We can run out of
the yard and leave the gate
behind if we like. How can you
say yes to Jesus, the gate? How
can you show him that you
appreciate him and love
him?
