REFLECTION
Who is God? What does knowing him mean for us? When God revealed his name to Moses, he initiated a personal relationship of love with his people. To tell one’s name is to reveal one’s identity. God uses the language of mother-love to describe his tenderness, patience, and fidelity. Given such a relationship, even sinful people can beg to be adopted as God’s children. John’s three verses sum up the entire gospel: God loved us so much that he sent his Son. To believe in Jesus is to know God; to reject him is to refuse life. Paul’s letter calls us to the shared joy which is the mark of Christians. God’s children mirror his love, peace and unity; by helping one another we become more like God. Our kiss of peace during the Eucharist expresses our love. Paul’s concluding blessing calls on God as source of our love, Jesus the Crucified who has manifested God the Father’s love for us, and the indwelling Spirit who enables us to love the Blessed Trinity and to love each other. The life of the Trinity is model and source for our Christian lives.
