We ended the holy Easter season with the magnificent feast of the Holy Spirit, and then we celebrate the feast of the Most Holy Trinity.

Isn’t it quite ironic that the most basic formula of our prayer is one of the most least understood among the doctrines of our faith. Whenever we start our prayer, we always invoke the three Persons of the Trinity. We always start our prayer with the Sign of the Cross. We say “In the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” We say this while we use our right hand to touch our forehead, our abdomen, our left shoulder, then our right shoulder. We have done these things in an almost automatic function that we don’t really realise how immense this doctrine of the Holy Trinity is all about.

Pentecost, the day, the world became one, one spirit, one body, one family whose head is Jesus Christ!

Seeing my yawning face and puffy eyes on a winter cold morning, you enthusiastically greet me, “G’day, mate!”

One of the exciting events in Track and Field is the 4 X 100 metre relay. There’s a team of four athletes and they’re standing 100 metres apart and the first athlete will run for 100 metres then they pass the baton to the next athlete and the fourth athlete gets the baton and runs straight until the finish line. The beauty of this event is not just about running fast but it’s also about coordination between runners as they pass the baton. Because if you run without the baton, then the whole team gets disqualified and there are a number of races that are decided on how the baton was passed while running very fast too.

Peace be with you! It was at 3am when I was called to the hospital.

The readings of this Sunday (Sixth Sunday of Easter) invite us to act upon the Love of God in our lives; the love of God, which manifested itself in the person of Jesus.

We read in the Gospels in Mk 5:1-5 how Jesus went across the Sea of Galilee to the area of the Gerasenes. There amongst the tombs he met a man possessed by evil spirits. When the man saw Jesus coming he ran to him, fell on his knees and shouted, “Jesus, Son of the Most High God, what do you want with me? Promise before God that you won’t hurt me!”

This was because Jesus had said to him, “Come out of this man, you evil spirit!” Jesus didn’t hurt the man; in fact he healed him and sent the evil spirits to possess a herd of pigs that ended up dying in the lake.

Jesus said, “My sheep recognize my voice and they follow me." That’s why, after working diligently throughout an entire night and yet catching nothing, even a single tiny fish, the fisherman recognizes the voice of his shepherd

On this Second Sunday of Easter, we continue to read the resurrection account, from the 20^th chapter of St John’s gospel. 

Pope Francis in his Apostolic Exhortation, “The Joy of the Gospel” states, “There are Christians whose lives seems like Lent without Easter”. 

Today is one of the very rare days that we have two gospels read during the same mass.

As we’re approaching the Holy Week, we’re preparing ourselves to take part in the suffering, death and resurrection.
