Thursday of the Second Week of Easter

John 3:31-36

"The one who comes from above is above all... whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever disobeys the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God remains upon him."

Belief is certainty that God has shown himself and has opened up for us the view of truth itself. (Pope Benedict XVI) God has shown himself in the different humanity of Peter and the apostles. Their witness moves us to want to obey the God who is trustworthy. If we are men and women of prayer and lead Gospel lives, we will be protected from the powers of evil promised here and in the life to come.
