Epiphany Reflections,Feb.15,12,Jn.8:31-38

In today's Gospel, Jesus enters into a dialogue with his  listeners about his mission and identity. He tells them plainly that they are refusing to accept the facts that are before  them.He asks them to accept him as the Savior because of the  works he does. He tells them that in accepting his teachings, they will be accepting the truth and no more will be living in the shadows of lies and untruths. By accepting Jesus, they will be freed from their sins. The  will be able to experience peace and joy in their hearts.
Today , Jesus is asking us to commit ourselves to him and experience the forgiveness he offers us.We are all sinners. Every day , we exhibit more of our fragility and weakness. But we should know that the Lord will never forsake us.We should feel comforted in that hope.
