The voice of Jesus

During his passion, Jesus was asked by Pilate, “What is truth?” Had Pilate only looked with the eyes of humble faith, he would have seen Truth standing before him! Jesus tells Pilate and each of us: “For this I was born and for this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to my voice” (Jn 18:37). Listening to the voice of Jesus, we will learn with humility and deep appreciation the depths of God’s love for humanity. But listening for the voice of Christ calls us to order our lives accordingly. We are to live in the world, but not be of the world. Rather, we are to be people who steward God’s love and truth as co-workers with God through the Holy Spirit.
