Friday in the Easter octave Jn 21: 1-14

Fishing third place meeting Jesus
Where do I get to meet Jesus? How are my meetings with Jesus going? Am I preparing for meetings with Jesus, and how much do I return to them after them? Jesus appears to the disciples at the Sea of ​​Tiberius: “He said, ‘Come and eat.’ And no one of the disciples did not dare ask him, “Who are you?” for they knew it was the Lord “(Jn 21:12).
At first, they did not recognize Jesus by his voice. Of course, Jesus is the same, but he lives like someone new and entered life in a new way. He appears to the apostle in a new light. Up to now, they saw him in his mortal body, sad, tired, crying; now they see the glorified body that is no longer subject to biological laws. This makes it difficult to recognize him. Sanctifying grace also helps us change our way of thinking and acting. Church us recommends things and events where we can only gain value for our growing spiritual life. The future priest should not forget the prayer, the visit to the chapel, the silent settling down, contact with the sacraments. Knowing God and meeting Him is often our duty, privilege, and goal. When we can feel that he is far away, that he is late, that he has forgotten. Let’s not forget that the sky is recharged, and only therapists seize it. Proposal for adoption: To spend a day giving thanks for the gift of the resurrection.

Saturday in the Easter octave Mk 16,9-15 Unbelief and hardness of heart In what and how is my unbelief and hardness of heart manifested? How I try to avoid infidelity and heart hardness? What is the danger of my unbelief and hardness of heart? Jesus rebuked the disciples: “He blamed unbelief and hardness of heart for not believing what they saw resurrected ”(Mk 16:14).
Jesus points out that unbelief and hardness of heart are serious things. It was about the credibility of it all that Christ preached, for which he sacrificed his life, and which he confirmed with his own resurrection. Does anything of Jesus’ teaching inspire us? Jesus asks us without reservation to accept the truths proclaimed by the Church, or assurances such as beatitudes, or principles such as class purity, restraint, concession, renunciation, forgiveness, and other signs belonging to Christ. We certainly do not dare to utter aloud our unbelief, but ours, an everyday attitude, can practically express such infidelity. It is time to accept the truths, principles that Jesus preached and establish ourselves in the faith and correctness. The calling of a priest requires both internal and external fidelity and openness of hearts to Christ. Proposal for adoption: Be more aware of the words: Your death, Lord, we proclaim, and your we confess the resurrection until you come in glory.
