our journey too, the very template of our lives, as we rediscover as wetl as mal(e sense of and draw meaning from the ups and downs of Life. Just tike the journey to Catvary Jesus tool< for us, each one of our and 0ur [oved one's sufferings is the joy of living. Saint Pope John Paul who lirred a Life of suffering and gave witness to the joy of

Iiving, wrote in his Savifici Doloris. "Suffering the joy of living."

So, remember the common expression "no pain no

gain" is a necessity if we are to fottow the 5a,rior, from passion into death, and sadness into joy.

Fifth Sunday of Lent Jesus Comes To Our Defense Sts. Peter and Paul Church

April 7, 2019

GOOD NEWS! Max Beckmann’s drawing, Christ and the Sinner, places the viewer outside today’s Gospel scene looking in. We’re behind the darkened figures standing at a door. We see Jesus in full view, standing in the light blocking the accusers’ way toward the woman. He’s clearly coming to her defense as he listens, unmoved by their story. Oftentimes we may feel that Jesus stands more as an accuser than a savior. He’s there to point out what we should do in the future, didn’t do in the past, or aren’t doing in the present. This isn’t the Jesus the Gospel presents. He stands to defend the sinner before her accusers. Even to those who so blatantly hurt him, Jesus said “Father, forgive them, they know not what they do” (Luke 23:34). Sometimes it is hard to let go of an erring view of God. It can be comforting to have someone to blame or fear. Look at St. Paul: He was a zealous persecutor of Christians. Yet, having found Christ, he let go of his erroneous view of God and let Jesus come to his defense. He let go of the guilt of his sinful past and his desire to save himself through his own works. He considered it all trash to be discarded and forgotten as he held on to faith in Jesus. We need to leave our evil deeds in his merciful heart and forget them there. The sacrament of reconciliation offers the best opportunity to do so. Let him stand at the door of your heart, defending you from those sinister accusers of your past who would haul you back into the darkness. For Reflection Do negative thoughts about myself or my past limit my experience of God’s love? When have I truly known the redemption of Christ? Remember that moment of mercy and take strength from it. © 2019 Liguori Publications, Liguori, MO 63057-9999. Printed in U.S.A.

Reading I - Isaiah 43:16-21

We are reminded in this passage from Isaiah that we can leave our pasts behind us. God’s gifts of love and grace are the promise of a second chance and a clean slate. When welcomed into our hearts, God does “new things.” Old things can be put away so that new life can be ours. Reading II - Philippians 3:8-14 What is the grace of God? It is certainly more than the offer of a pardon for our sins. It is the restoration of the relationship to God that we were meant to have from the very beginning. The power that flows from the resurrection of Christ frees us from our sins and empowers us to live a new life. Reading III - John 8:1-11 The crowd was quick to condemn the woman who was caught in the act of adultery. After all, she had broken the laws of God and deserved to die. But Jesus took the high road morally and spiritually and offered her forgiveness. He restored her to the community on condition that she would not sin again. NEXT WEEK’S READINGS
