Reflections
GOSPEL:
John 12:20-33
Here Jesus compares his life
and ours with a grain of wheat. If the
grain falls into the earth and dies, it
then rises as a stalk of wheat that gives
life by feeding others. Like the grain of
wheat, we must be willing to lose our
lives in order to gain eternal
life.
Jesus knows that the hour of his
death when he will be lifted up on the
cross is coming soon. But he also knows
that when he is lifted up, he will draw
everyone, Jews and Greeks and all the
world’s people, to himself.
1.) In this gospel story, to lose
your life means to lay down your
attachments to anything or anyone that
prevents you from following Jesus. For
people your age in today’s world,
what might some of those things and
persons be?
2.) Who or what helps you to be a
faithful follower of Jesus, not only
during Lent but on a daily basis?
3.) How do you think Jesus draws
people to himself?
4.) How can you help others whose
words or actions say “We should like
to see Jesus”?
