Reflections GOSPEL:
John 3:13-17
Today’s gospel offers
us a great insight into Jesus’
teaching. In response to the searching
questions of the Pharisee Nicodemus, who
came to see him under cover of night,
Jesus leads him gradually into the deeper
truths about God’s love for us. We
hear Jesus explain so beautifully that
“God did not send his Son into the
world to condemn the world,” but to
save the world. And why? Because “God
so loved the world, that he gave his only
Son...” (John 3:16). In other words,
God would do anything for us!
1.) What ought to be our gratitude
for God’s great love?
2.) What part does the cross play in
your personal life?
3.) Do you wear a cross as a
reminder of God’s unlimited love and
Jesus’ willingness to give his life
for us? Or is it merely a piece of
jewelry?
4.) How can we imitate the model of
Jesus’ unselfish love, in our
families and in our relationships with
friends?
