H OLY C ROSS C HURCH N EW B RITAIN
Zobaczyć Jezusa
Nawet najwspanialszy dar może pójść w zapomnienie lub być nienależycie przyjęty. Tak było ze zmartwychwstaniem. Jezus ukazywał się swoim uczniom, a więc wiedzieli, że żyje. Odpowiedzią Piotra na dar nowego życia było lapidarne stwierdzenie: Idę
łowić ryby. Wyraził on w ten sposób zamysł innych uczniów, ponieważ bez wahania poszli za nim. Po bezowocnej nocy przychodzi Jezus i zadaje Piotrowi pytanie o miłość: Czy miłujesz Mnie więcej aniżeli ci?
To pytanie można przetłumaczyć, zachowując poprawność językową, nieco inaczej: Czy miłujesz Mnie więcej aniżeli te rzeczy? To znaczy swoją łódź, sieci, jezioro, czyli to wszystko, co przyćmiewa mu oczy
i serce. Prawdziwie zobaczyć Jezusa może tylko ten, kto Go miłuje.
3rd Sunday of Easter
"Jesus said to him the third time, 'Simon, son of John, do you love me?'" Three times, Simon Peter had denied Jesus. Now, three times, the risen Christ gives Peter the opportunity to announce his love. Although Peter was "distressed" by the Lord's repeated question, ultimately this must have been a healing moment in Peter's life. He finally had the opportunity to assure Jesus that he loved him, thereby making up for his earlier failure and weakness on the night of the Crucifixion.
Jesus' death on the cross sufficed to forgive us of our sins. But his resurrection assures us that there is new life on the other side of our sinfulness. Just as Jesus had the power to conquer
death, so too through his grace we have the power to conquer our sins. We can live a resurrected life, we can have
a new beginning, just as Peter did that day at the Sea of Tiberias when he pledged his faith anew. This pledge of faith,
it's interesting to note, also came with a kind of commission.
Each time that Peter told the Lord he loved him, Jesus responded with a command: "Feed my lambs," "Tend my sheep," and "Feed my sheep." Of course, we know that Jesus had already established Peter as the "rock" on which he built his church, as the first pope. Now, Jesus was emphasizing the connection between loving him--the Good Shepherd--and loving his people, his flock, his church. Peter's love for Christ was meant to be manifested in his love and care for the church, as is the case with every pope. But it's also true for
every Christian. We are called not just to relish the gift of forgiveness and the grace of new life in Christ, but to take the
next step of loving and serving those around us.
