Friday 7 April

St John Baptist de la Salle

Jeremiah 20:10-13; Psalm 18; John 10:31-42

The Lord is with me

Again, they wanted to stone him. They saw him as only a man, claiming to be God. And again, he escaped them. His hour had not yet come. The Lord’s passion and death would take place in God’s time, not in that of his enemies. Each of us has to undergo death. It will happen in God’s time, and the Lord will be with us, as he is now, at this very moment.
