WHEN JESUS PRESSES the disciples with the question, "Who do you say that I am?", Peterreplies that Jesus is the Messiah, the long-expected Saviour, the Anointed One. When Jesusforetells his death and resurrection, he rebukes a well-intentioned and loving Peter by saying,"Get behind me, Satan!" What did Peter and the disciples need to understand? In a painful way, they needed to know what kind of Messiah Jesus was going to be. He wasnot going to be a powerful, earthly king. Instead, the Son of Man would be the SufferingServant for the world. He would undergo great suffering, rejection and death, and after threedays rise through the power of the resurrection. The disciples needed to set their minds onGod's merciful and loving ways of seeing and doing things. Not an easy task; but their actionswould be the living mark of their faith in serving others. When we understand Jesus' true identity, we are invited to enter more intimately into aloving relationship with God. We are encouraged by the Holy Spirit to follow Jesus in greaterfaith and trust, to experience the mercy and love of God in our hearts, and to find meaningand purpose in our service to a broken world. Lord, help us to know and follow you, now andalways.

An Act of Spiritual Communion My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the
Most Blessed Sacrament. I love You above all things,
and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot now receive You Sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You have already come,
and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen.
