Monday of the 2nd week of Easter year C. John 3:1-8.

Born from above.

The resurrection is all about a new life. In this dialogue with Nicodemus, Jesus uses the metaphor "being born from above" to indicate the process of a spiritual rebirth and transformation that begins at baptism. Being born from above refers to a spiritual change: from the state of death to a new life in God's kingdom. Empowered by God's grace and the Holy Spirit, Christians are invited to live a new life through their change of lifestyle, that is living as a new creation (2Corinthians 5:17).

Jesus, I trust in you!
