Reflections
GOSPEL:
John 14:1-12
Jesus and his disciples are gathered for
the Last Supper. He tells them that he is
going to “prepare a place” for
them but Thomas points out that they do
not know the place or the way to get
there. What Thomas and the others have not
yet grasped is that Jesus himself is the
way. When Philip asks Jesus to “show
us the Father,” Jesus makes it clear
that he and God the Father are one. The
words and works of Jesus are the words and
works of the Father.
1.)
This is a very beautiful gospel passage.
Read through it again and pick one
favorite verse. Keep it to yourself for a
moment. When everyone has finished
choosing a verse, take turns sharing the
verse you chose.
2.)
Tell why you chose it. What does it mean
to you to go the way of Jesus in our world
today? The slogan “WWJD” (What
would Jesus do?) has become popular among
some Christians. Would you ever ask this
question of yourself? Would it help you
decide the way of Jesus for you? Why or
why not?
