Dear Friend in the Lord,
“Faith – Commitment”: In today’s Gospel, Jesus proclaimed, “A servant is not greater than his Master. If they persecuted Me, they will persecute you too.” Ponder on, “When we face challenges in our faith e.g. rejections from family, colleagues because of our love for Jesus, how did we respond? Did we ask Jesus for His strength and wisdom?”
Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
John 15:18-21
Jesus said to his disciples: ‘If the world hates you, remember that it hated me before you. If you belonged to the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you do not belong to the world, because my choice of you has drawn you from the world, therefore the world hates you.
‘Remember the words I said to you: A servant is not greater than his master. If they persecuted me, they will persecute you too; if they kept my word, they will keep yours as well. But it will be on my account that they will do all this to you, because they do not know the one who sent me.’
