Sixth Sunday of Easter
The Spirit of Truth
Jesus said to his
disciples: “I shall ask the
Father and he will give you the Spirit
of truth.” If someone ever says
to you “I want to tell you the
truth about yourself” stand
well back because you can be almost
certain that you will hear all the
things that are wrong with you! That’s
what we have done with the notion
of truth. God’s idea of truth
is just the opposite. It is about
all that is good and wonderful about
us. This week ban criticism from your
life and practice the truth by speaking
the good about yourself and also about
one another and about those who share
your home with you. Go out of your
way to notice the good qualities of
each person who makes up your life
and let each one know the goodness
you see in them. And look at your
parish this week and make a list of
all the good that is being done by
your priests and by so many people
and let them know what you see. Then
you will be God’s people.
