John 3,13-17

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 3,13-17
(Jesus answered) “No one has ascended into heaven but he who descended from heaven, the Son of
man. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of man be lifted up, that
whoever believes in him may have eternal life.” For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that
whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God sent the Son into the world, not to
condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him.

Reflection
The love of God is rooted in truth, goodness, and mercy. God gives us the freedom to choose whom and
what we will love and not love. We can love the darkness of sin and unbelief or we can love the light of
God’s truth, goodness, and mercy. If our love is guided by truth, goodness, and that which is truly beautiful,
then we will choose for God and love him above all else. What we love shows what we prefer. The Lord
Jesus came to unite earth with heaven and to raise those on earth to the glory of heaven. There is no
greater proof of God’s love for us then the sending of his Son to become one with us in our humanity and
to lay down his life for us. Do I really love God who is supreme above all that is good? Do I believe the
healing and saving power of Jesus’ cross?

Lasallian Guiding Principle
LGP states that, the spirit of faith is a “spirit that allows one to discover God’s active presence in his Word,
in men and women, in the poor, in nature, in history, and in ourselves.” As Lasallians, we need to
recognize the active presence of God’s Word, especially for our brothers and sisters. Let us allow
ourselves to be the living and active presence of God’s salvific act for humanity.

Prayer
MISSION PRAYER 2021 Year of Missio Ad Gentes CBCP
God, our loving Father, You sent your Son into the world to proclaim the Good News of Salvation to all: to
sinners, the poor, oppressed, the sick, the abandoned and neglected. He gave His life on the Cross for us
and rose again to new life to redeem us and reconcile us with you. You sent Your Holy Spirit to the
Apostles to continue the work of Your Son and to lead all to salvation. We thank you, Father, for bringing
us from darkness into light. Through Your loving plan, 500 years ago, missionaries came to our land to
proclaim the Gospel of Jesus, Your Son, to our ancestors that made us Your people and the Church. The
gift of faith has accompanied us through both darkness and lights, defeats and victories of our history as
Your people. Our faith has become for us true light that shines in the darkness. Renew in us the grace of
your Spirit that impels us to be witnesses of Jesus, Your Son, to a world broken by greed, violence,
injustice, sickness and suffering. May our faith bring us to unity as your children to care for and love one another. May the Holy Spirit empower us to be proclaimers of the Good News to our brothers and sisters in
Asia and to all nations. Give us the sincere desire to help others to come to faith in the Lord Jesus to share
in Your joy and life. May the Blessed Mother, the Star of Evangelization, accompany us and pray for us as
we live and share our faith with others. May our strong love and devotion to her as our Mahal na Ina form
us to be true disciples and witnesses of Jesus to all, always ready to be sent, and to be obedient to
whatever Jesus asks of us. We ask this through Jesus Christ, Your Son, who lives and and reigns with
You in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God forever and ever. Amen.
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.
