Yesterday I did not acknowledge as I usually do that I had read and accepted as the Truth that comes from God the human words with which Jesus spoke his explanation of himself and which were recorded in his Gospel by St. John.

Our Father knows all the difficulties that I have made for myself and others during my sinful life.

He also knows that I am now, at the end of this life, trying to follow his teaching and Law in both the words and the spirit that he made them as a Father joyfully welcoming back all repentant sinners, as Saviour Son in the Perfect Sacrifice to destroy the evil that still dominates our world, and Holy Spirit distributing the sevenfold free gifts of Faith and Love that IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT offers to all of us who turn to him in sincerity.

The latter part of St John's long life were spent as a son given into the care of Mary. There is nothing more than "Woman behold your son, son behold your mother" that we know about that "New Holy Family" created on Calvary.

In today's Gospel, Jesus says directly to the "Jews," the Temple Institution that had grown from the Word received by Moses, "I know that you do not have the love of God within you". There have been many times in the 2000 year history of the Institution founded on St Peter when the same condemnation could have been made to those who were supposed to be the Spiritual leaders of the Kingdom not of this world.

We know that Jesus has promised to be with us until the end of time. 

In these days there is a secular Israel but still consisting of Jews, still stiff-necked, still land-clearing by war, ethnic cleansing, and the killing of its rightful owners. There is a weakened Church very much of this world even to the extent of being influenced by the human norms of  Society rather than challenging them to show the way, truth and life which is the mission you entrusted to the Apostles.

We can all ask "Where is the promised presence of Our Lord?" in this historical reality of our times and yet I know that there is truly a spiritual body of Christ of which we can all become parts for that is the "Church of Love" that can be found by devotedly searching for and praying with the joyful community of Saints who, led by Mary, pray in the timeless presence of IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT that we on Earth become aware of our sins and sincerely seek forgiveness as do our brothers and sisters in Purgatory. 

It is for this that Jesus came into the world and made it possible for us too to become sanctified by his grace won in "bitter pain" on Calvary.

Dear Lord guide my heart onto the right paths that it is the sole purpose of my being to find and which have been eternally opened by You, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen
