God’s love for us calls us to respond in faith by professing our belief in God’s son, Jesus, and the salvation that he has won for us.

In situations of conflict, we are to be agents of peace and harmony among people.

The ending of Matthew’s Gospel can be understood as the beginning of the Church.

Only through the Spirit will God’s revelation and love be known.

As God spoke his name to Moses, “I am,” so too Jesus speaks his name to his disciples: “I am the way and the truth and the life.”

Christian leaders follow the example of Jesus, the Good Shepherd, by being faithful to him and by being a good shepherd.

In the Eucharist too we share in the breaking of the bread and discover Jesus in our midst.

Through Baptism we receive the same Holy Spirit that Jesus brought to the first disciples.

In Baptism we die to sin’s power over us, rising as children of God.

The man born blind gradually comes to a greater understanding about who Jesus is and what it means to be his disciple, while the Pharisees (those who should see) are the ones who remain blind.
