John 15:26–16:4a

Jesus said to his disciples: “When the Advocate comes whom I will send you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, he will testify to me. And you also testify, because you have been with me from the beginning.
“I have told you this so that you may not fall away. They will expel you from the synagogues; in fact, the hour is coming when everyone who kills you will think he is offering worship to God. They will do this because they have not known either the Father or me. I have told you this so that when their hour comes you may remember that I told you.”

Taken from: Give Us This Day

Father,
I have given away your word
and they who received it
are those who sing on roads of blood,
who speak it to the setting sun, who whisper it to the hearth-fire on winter nights.
Father,
you are he who speaks me,
who shouts me forth from cool caves
from whose darkness I tumble into the light.
I am your daylight.
I am the song of your morning.
I am the blue heights of noon day
and a wind building castles in the sand.
I am the waterfall of air
that goes to sleep in orchards of plum blossom.

Father, I come to you.

We find reflections of this God madly in love with human-beings in various images, always eye-opening, in the Bible. Among them we contemplate a creator God who creates creative people, a communicator God who makes himself known throughout human history; a saviour God who champions life against every evil; a God who accompanies.
How well do I know this profligate God that Jesus constantly reveals to us?

Salve Regina

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of Mercy.
Hail, our life, our sweetness,
and our hope.
To you do we cry,
poor banished children of Eve.
To you do we send up our sighs,
Mourning and weeping in this valley of tears.
Turn then, most gracious advocate,
Your eyes of mercy towards us.
And after this, our exile,
Show us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus.
O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.
