Reflection on the Gospel Reading on the 11 April 2011

Jn 8:1-11

It is all about what is within me. It dos not matter how other people have accused me. God looks into my heart and will do justice to me. Many people have misunderstood me for many years. Now, I have left the church. But, I do not leave with any guilt for God knows me through and through. People in church may still slap me with accusations and labels. It does not matter anymore. In today’s gospel, Jesus is telling me, “Neither do I condemn you.


Go, and from now on do not sin any more.” No matter what I have done wrong in the past, God has forgiven me. Each day is a new day. I should start anew with God and continue to build my relationship closer to God each day even though I have left the church. I wonder how the people who have accused me will react if ‘Jesus bent down and began to write on the ground with his finger.’ That is only what is drawn or written on the rgound speaks into their hearts.

As long as I am right with God deep within, I will also be right with the others with the Spirit of Love. I no longer care what people may say regarding me leaving church. Only I know and God knows and that is enough. I will never abandon my faith for God is the only One who has braved through many storms with me over the years and has been blessing me in the faces of so many loving and kind people over the years. So, I too, should be the face of Christ for the others and continue to share God’s Love with the others no matter where I go. I thank God for loving me as who I am. Whatever people say or accuse, it no longer matters for Christ is in me.

With Love,
Elena
