TOPIC: DO YOU BELIEVE THAT WHOEVER BELIEVES IN JESUS, WILL DO THE WORKS THAT JESUS DID, AND WILL DO EVEN GREATER THINGS ? First Reading: Acts 6: 1-7 Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 33: 1-2, 4-5, 18-19 Second Reading: First Peter 2: 4-9 Alleluia: John 14: 6 Gospel: John 14: 1-12 Today’s gospel invites us to believe in Jesus Christ, to be at peace always, to persevere, to fight the good fight of faith especially during difficult times. Scripture says, “Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house there are many dwelling places. If there were not, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back again and take you to myself, so that where I am you also may be.” Jesus likewise said, “Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever believes in me will do the works that I do, and will do greater ones than these, because I am going to the Father." This is the 1120th installment of our CFC contemplation series focusing on the daily liturgical readings. [NOTE: As we continue to pray for Bro Bong Arjonillo’s healing and recovery, let us listen to our brother Israel Silud as he brings us today's reflection. All the regular reflections are between 3-7 minutes long, enough time for us to ponder what God's message is for us individually and to pray that we may live them out in our lives.
