Reflection on Gospel of John 7-12

Adoring God thru Thanks & Praise

The purpose of the gospel of John
is to prove conclusively that Jesus
is the Son of God and that all who
believe in Him will have eternal life.
Using the Jewish feast days as
public forums, Jesus declares
Himself to be the Bread of Life,
the Sent One of God, the Forgiver
of Sins and the Light of the World.
But how do you refute a Man who
preaches that He is the Light of
the World, then proves it by
giving sight to the blind?..who claims
He is “the resurrection & the life”
then validates that claim by raising
a man from the dead. The choice
is clear: either believe Him or
seek to silence Him once & for all.

On Monday, we learn from Jn 7 that
Christ the Source of Living Water.
On Tuesday, we learn from John 8
that Christ the Light Sets Us Free.
On Wednesday, we learn fr John 9
that Christ Shows the Power of God.
On Thursday we learn fr Jn 10 that
Saviour like the Shepherd Lead Us.
On Friday, we learn from John 11
that Christ Assures Resurrectn Life.
On Saturday, we learn from Jn 12
that Christ Models Glorifying God.

Let us humble ourselves and pray
and seek His face. Help us O God
be Christ’s disciples who Adore You:
For You are worthy of our Thanks
as Christ Is the Source of Living
Water and as the Light Sets Us Free;
For You are worthy of our Praise
as Christ Shows the Power of God
and Assures Us Resurrection Life;
For You Christ like a Shepherd Leads
Us and Models Glorifying the Father.
In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.
