In this week’s Gospel from John 14, Jesus tells us of the coming of the Advocate, the Spirit of Truth, the Holy Spirit. Sometimes it seems we overlook this third member of the Triune God, but isn’t that typical of we humans? We overlook that which is close at hand.
Perhaps it’s fitting that this reading coincides with Mother’s Day this year. At their best, mothers are close at hand, loving us as God first loved us, keeping us safe, comforting us in times of trouble, being our best cheerleader. Being very Spirit-like.
Hug your Mom today! If that’s not possible, give a mom your support and encouragement. Thanks, Mom.
Go in Peace. Serve the Lord.
Thanks be to God!
