SUNRISE
(A Weekly Reflection for SJDEFI Family)
5th Sunday of Lent
Theme: THE LOVE THAT CASTS OUT FEAR
Jesus is the one who never condemns, even when we are most condemnatory of ourselves. The look of Jesus to this condemned woman saved her – the look of divine and everlasting love. In prayer we can bring all the fears, shame and guilt of our lives to this story of forgiveness and hear words spoken to each of us – ‘I do not condemn you.’ ~ SACRED SPACE Reflections ~
“SUNRISE” is a weekly reflection for the SJDEFI Family. The title is based on the Gospel of St. Luke 1: 78-79 which says, “because of the tender mercy of our God, whereby the ‘SUNRISE’ shall visit us from on high to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace”.
“SUNRISE” gives: LIFE to our weary body and soul; HOPE to the promise of possibility; PEACE to go deeper to self and deepened relationship with God; and, LOVE to do or live what God desires.
Be a SUNRISE to others!
