Monday 28 Week in Ordinary Time

There are billions of us living in this world at this moment. 

Millions of us have lived and died since that moment when Paul began his letter to his distant friends, those who knew themselves to be loved by God and ready to return that love by becoming living saints, defined by holiness. 

In his greeting he defines himself, the individual who had been blasted into belief by the "Resurrection" as a "servant" who has been sent by Our Lord to continue the revelation first made through the prophets he knew from his study of scripture.

Each one of us also knows our individual selves and it is with this "I" that we are free to respond to all that our awareness, temporal, mental and spiritual makes known to us. 

Jesus, IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT, is "True Man" and as such lived amongst contemporaries with whom he formed a unique human generation. It is only from the recorded lived experiences of this generation that we have the final testimony that "Our Father" completes thus making his will for us completely transparent and never changing.

Jesus never equivocates. "Before Abraham was, I am" . 

"I am the Way, the Truth and the Life" tells us that we can all overcome  the stark warning of "This is an evil generation" of this morning's Gospel addressed first to those on whom we have to rely as the foundations of our faith and quest for holiness, and subsequently to all of us who have ever lived.
