I n this Sunday's Gospel
reading, Jesus tells us that
the Holy Spirit is our
"Advocate". Some scholars
translate the word to
"Counselor". In the original
Greek, it means "called
alongside". It's closely related
to the verb "parakaleo" ("to
call" or "summon") from
which we get "Paraclete" as a
name for the Holy Spirit. It
referred to a legal assistant, a
courtroom advocate. Jesus is telling us that the Holy Spirit
is our legal assistant when
we're falsely accused,
misjudged, or wrongly
condemned.
Notice that Jesus refers to our
Advocate as the "Spirit of
Truth". No matter what other
people think about us, no
matter what wrong things they
say about us, no matter what
opinions they have of us, God
always knows the truth. And
the truth that sets us free from
their bad attitudes is this: It's
only God's opinion that really
matters. And his opinion of us
is better than we think it is!
We judge ourselves more
harshly than we should, and
this is why we worry so much
about how others are judging
us. If we honestly examine our
consciences, seek
reconciliation with God for
our sins during the Penance
Rite at Mass or in the
Sacrament of Confession, and
strive to improve, then Jesus
says to us what he said to
(Continued on page 2)
Our Mission:
The Santo Niño Catholic Church is a faith community where all are welcome to celebrate Catholic beliefs embellished by the best Philippine traditions. It is a dynamic parish responding to the spiritual needs of the community to fulfill its evangelical mission and to realize Christ’s call of making disciples of all nations. (Parish Pastoral Council, 21 April 2001)
Christoph Friedrich Blumhardt
Such prayer is right, and approved by God our Saviour, whose will it is that all men should find salvation and come to know the truth. 1 Timothy 2:3-4, NEB
Lord our God, give us your Spirit, we pray, that we may learn to understand what we are and what tasks you have set for us. We thank you for
all the light you give us. Grant that we and many others may come closer to knowledge of
the truth and be at peace about all that belongs in your hands, our Father in heaven.
Keep us now and forevermore in your almighty hand. May we know your goodness and
the blessing it brings. For through your goodness we can endure even the hardest days and be victorious in the
battle of life. Amen.
J esus said to his disciples: "If you love me, you
will keep my commandments. And I will ask the
Father, and he will give you another Advocate to
be with you always, the Spirit of truth, whom the world
cannot accept, because it neither sees nor knows him.
But you know him, because he remains with you, and
will be in you. I will not leave you orphans; I will come
to you. In a little while the world will no longer see me,
but you will see me, because I live and you will live. On
that day you will realize that I am in my Father and you
are in me and I in you. Whoever has my
commandments and observes them is the one who loves
me. And whoever loves me will be loved by my Father,
and I will love him and reveal myself to him."
other sinners: "I do not
condemn you; go and sin no
more."
Don't you sometimes wish that
Jesus would come physically
to your rescue when you're
misjudged? He said that he
will not leave us orphans -- his
Holy Spirit will always be
with us when we need to be
defended, telling us the truth
about our goodness.
Even when we sin, the Spirit
of Truth defends us to our
heavenly Judge: "Look, this
precious child really does
want to be holy." To us, the
Spirit says, "Let me teach you
how to grow in holiness and
avoid this sin." And to others,
the Spirit says: "If you love
me, love this good friend of
mine."
Questions for Personal
Reflection:
How have you been unjustly
accused and unfairly judged?
Imagine what the Holy Spirit
is saying to the Father about
that. And to those who
condemned you. What is he
saying to you about you?
