John 14:6-7

Date posted: May 10, 2020

Let us all remember that we are in the Holy Presence of God.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

 

John 14:6-7
Jesus said to him, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
If you know me, then you will also know my Father. From now on you do know him and have seen him.”

Reflection
The gospel talks about Jesus Himself, being the way, the truth, the life. Jesus constantly reminds us not to
let your hearts be troubled for the father is in Him. He would always remind us to love one another
because through this, we are one with God. We are asked to join Him in this eternal parade of love and
acceptance. As this happens, freedom grows and we begin to find Him everywhere. In what way do we
see God as our way, our truth, and our life?

Lasallian Guiding Principle
LGP states that, Zeal is “a passionate commitment to realize God’s will which, in Lasallian terms, is the
integral liberation and salvation of all, especially the youth and the poor.” In relation to the gospel, St. La
Salle served as God’s instrument to help the people who are suffering due to poverty during his time. As
Lasallians, we continue his mission to serve the people who are in need and neglected in the society.

Oratio Imperata Against the COVID-19
God our Father, we come to You in our need to ask Your protection
against the COVID-19 that has disturbed us and claimed many lives.
We pray that You guide the people tasked
to find cure for this disease and to stem its transmission.
Protect the medical experts and healthcare personnel
that they may minister to the sick with competence and compassion.
We pray for those afflicted, may they be restored to health soon.
Protect those who care for them.
Grant eternal rest to those who have died.
Give us grace in this trying time to work for the good of all and to help those in need.
We implore You to stop the spread of this virus and to save us from our fears.
Grant this through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son
who lives and reigns with You, in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God forever and ever. Amen.
Our Lady of the Star, pray for us!
St. John Baptist de La Salle, pray for us!
St. Miguel Febres Cordero, pray for us!
Live Jesus in our hearts, forever!
In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
