Friday of the 7th week of Easter. C. John 21:15-19
Follow Me
This is the meaning of discipleship. Jesus invites every human being to Follow Him in order to be conformed to Him. At all times, the Apostle Peter, serves as an example. Peter’s interior transformation was a conversion of heart that resulted in his recommitment to follow Christ, even after Jesus foretold his martyrdom. Peter’s experience was “one of those sorrowful outpourings that impoverish us but are ultimately profitable because they show us our powerlessness and oblige us from then on to trust exclusively in God’s mercy and faithfulness” (Jacques Philippe, Interior Freedom, 100).
Jesus, I trust in you
