In one short sentence the Lord Jesus reveals Himself to us. He is the Way, the Truth and the Life. Christ is not one way, ‘a’ way, He is ‘the’ way. He is the exact image of the Father. How much do we desire to know the Father? As we behold Jesus Christ, we behold the Father and are able to know him and love Him deeper. He is the Truth and the Life. This truth revealed by the Father comes into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who guides us into all Truth (John 16:13) because He will only speak what He hears from the Father and reveal to us, through the written and spoken word of God. As we partake of Him at Mass and receive His Word into our hearts, we receive life in all its fullness. On the feast day of Saints Phillip and James we are reminded today, that God can take hold of a weak and fragile soul filled with doubts and unbelief and transform them into mighty vessels of God. Today let us take hold of the opportunity to become vessels to hold God’s Word, and then we will be able to share His Word with others.

Prayer: Abba Father, I bring myself under your Lordship and I commit my life afresh. Make me a vessel unto you. Amen.
