Gospel Reflection

God our life, you are God of the living, not of the dead.
You are the only God,
and we love you with all our heart.
We love our neighbour as ourselves.

You are the living God;
Jesus is your name,
and the glory is yours.

Gospel Reading - The call of Nathanael

thumb

45Philip now went off to look for Nathanael and told him, “We have found the Messiah! — the very person Moses and the prophets told about! His name is Jesus, the son of Joseph from Nazareth!”

46“Nazareth!” exclaimed Nathanael. “Can anything good come from there?”

“Just come and see for yourself,” Philip declared.

47As they approached, Jesus said, “Here comes an honest man — a true son of Israel.”

48“How do you know what I am like?” Nathanael demanded.

And Jesus replied, “I could see you under the fig tree before Philip found you.”

49Nathanael replied, “Sir, you are the Son of God — the King of Israel!”

50Jesus asked him, “Do you believe all this just because I told you I had seen you under the fig tree? You will see greater proofs than this. 51You will even see heaven open and the angels of God coming back and forth to me, the Messiah.”a

The Lord's Prayer

Our Father in heaven,
     hallowed be your name,
     your kingdom come,
     your will be done,
          on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
     as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial
     and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours
     now and for ever.
Amen.
