First reading Acts 5:17-26

The men you imprisoned are in the Temple, preaching to the people

The high priest intervened with all his supporters from the party of the Sadducees. Prompted by jealousy, they arrested the apostles and had them put in the common gaol.
  But at night the angel of the Lord opened the prison gates and said as he led them out, ‘Go and stand in the Temple, and tell the people all about this new Life.’ They did as they were told; they went into the Temple at dawn and began to preach.
  When the high priest arrived, he and his supporters convened the Sanhedrin – this was the full Senate of Israel – and sent to the gaol for them to be brought. But when the officials arrived at the prison they found they were not inside, so they went back and reported, ‘We found the gaol securely locked and the warders on duty at the gates, but when we unlocked the door we found no one inside.’ When the captain of the Temple and the chief priests heard this news they wondered what this could mean. Then a man arrived with fresh news. ‘At this very moment’ he said, ‘the men you imprisoned are in the Temple. They are standing there preaching to the people.’ The captain went with his men and fetched them. They were afraid to use force in case the people stoned them.
 

Responsorial Psalm 33(34):2-9

This poor man called and the Lord heard him.
or
Alleluia!
 
I will bless the Lord at all times,
  his praise always on my lips;
in the Lord my soul shall make its boast.
  The humble shall hear and be glad.
 
This poor man called and the Lord heard him.
or
Alleluia!
 
Glorify the Lord with me.
  Together let us praise his name.
I sought the Lord and he answered me;
  from all my terrors he set me free.
 
This poor man called and the Lord heard him.
or
Alleluia!
 
Look towards him and be radiant;
  let your faces not be abashed.
This poor man called, the Lord heard him
  and rescued him from all his distress.
 
This poor man called and the Lord heard him.
or
Alleluia!
 
The angel of the Lord is encamped
  around those who revere him, to rescue them.
Taste and see that the Lord is good.
  He is happy who seeks refuge in him.
 
This poor man called and the Lord heard him.
or
Alleluia!
 

Gospel Acclamation

Alleluia, alleluia!
Christ has risen and shone upon us
whom he redeemed with his blood.
Alleluia!
 

Or: Jn3:16

Alleluia, alleluia!
God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son:
everyone who believes in him has eternal life.
Alleluia!
 

Gospel John 3:16-21

God sent his Son into the world so that through him the world might be saved

Jesus said to Nicodemus:
‘God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son,
so that everyone who believes in him may not be lost
but may have eternal life.
For God sent his Son into the world
not to condemn the world,
but so that through him the world might be saved.
No one who believes in him will be condemned;
but whoever refuses to believe is condemned already,
because he has refused to believe in the name of God’s only Son.
On these grounds is sentence pronounced:
that though the light has come into the world
men have shown they prefer darkness to the light
because their deeds were evil.
And indeed, everybody who does wrong
hates the light and avoids it,
for fear his actions should be exposed;
but the man who lives by the truth comes out into the light,
so that it may be plainly seen that what he does is done in God.’

Reflection
Acts 5:17-26, John 3:16-21

“God so loved the world so much”
Today, as we read the gospel passage, let us not think that we “know” it so well and so we simply skim over it. Let us read it with an open heart and be amazed that we are the objects of His personal love. His love moves Him to action and to give us Hisonly Son, Jesus. We are called to respond to this great gift by believing in Jesus and following Him who is the way to the Father.

Believing in the Son implies that we allow Jesus to shape the whole pattern of our life: from the way we speak to the hobbies we enjoy to the kind of relationship we have to the actions we do. Our lives must reflect the life of Jesus and His values of love and mercy. In this time of silent prayer, let us allow ourselves to be loved by God once again, and to have the joy to faithfully imitate Jesus.

Question for reflection:
Is Jesus the one shaping my life (my thoughts, words and actions)?

Renungan

Kisah Para Rasul 5:17-26, Yohanes 3:16-21

“Tuhan sangat mengasihi dunia”
Ketika kita membaca petikan injil hari ini janganlah kita berfikir bahawa kita “mengetahuinya”dengan baik dan oleh itu kita mengabaikannya. Marilah membacanya dengan hati terbuka dan kagum bahawa kita adalah alat cinta peribadiNya. CintaNya mengerakkan Dia untuk bertindak dan memberikan anakNya yang tunggal, Yesus, kepada kita. Kita dipanggil untuk memberikan respon kepada rahmat besar ini dengan percaya kepada Yesus dan mengikuti Dia yang adalah jalan menuju Bapa.
Percaya kepada Anak menuntut kita untuk membenarkan Yesus membentuk seluruh pola kehidupan kita: dari cara kita berbicara kepada hobi yang menjadi minat kita hingga jenis hubungan yang kita miliki kepada segala tindakan yang kita lakukan. Kehidupan kita harus mencerminkan kehidupan Yesus dan nilai-nilai cinta dan belas kasihanNya. Pada saat doa hening ini marilah membenarkan diri kita dicintai Tuhan sekali lagi dan memiliki sukacita untuk meniru Yesus dengan setia.

Soalan renungan:

Adakah Yesus yang membentuk hidup saya (Fikiran, perkataan dan perbuatan)?

Kereja Rasul 5:17-26
John 3:16-21

Allah Taala balat rindu ka dunya.
Saritu, maya kitai macha Injil, anang ngumbai diri “nemu” enggau dalam bacha nya lalu belemati ngapa. Aram kitai macha enggau ati ti tebuka lalu temegah laban kitai tu meh dikerindu Allah Taala. Pengerindu Iya ngerak awak ngereja pengawa lalu meri Anak Tunggal Iya, Jesus. Kitai dikangau awak nerima pemeri ti udu besai tu enggau arap ka Jesus sereta nitih ka Iya ti nyadi jalai ngagai Apai.

Arap ka Anak mai reti kitai minta Jesus nempa segenap pengidup kitai:ari gaya kitai bejako sereta hobi ti dikerindu kitai ngagai kaul ti mai kitai ngereja pengawa. Pengidup kitai patut mantolka pengidup Jesus sereta ajar Iya pasal pengerindu sereta penyinu. Dalam awak sembiang tu, aram kitai meri diri dikerindu Allah Taala sekali agi lalu ngembuan pengerindu nitih ka Jesus enggau talok agi.

Kali ka nya Jesus bisi nempa pengidup aku(Runding, jako & pengawa)?

省思
《宗五:17-26》
《若三:16-21》

“天主很是挚爱这个世界”
今天,当我们阅读福音篇章的时候,让我们不想象自己很是“熟悉”这个篇章,并且使得我们轻易地略过。让我们敞开的胸怀阅读,以及为我们是祂紧邻慈爱的对象而感到奇妙。祂的爱促使祂有所行动,进而赐祂的独子耶稣予我们之间。我们受到的召唤是去回应这一道圣礼,信实于耶稣及跟随祂为通往天主圣父的道路。

信实于圣子就意味着我们允许耶稣塑造我们的生命形象:从我们的说话方式直到我们享受其中的爱好、我们所拥有的的关系类别、以及我们所采取的行动等等。我们的生命应该反映着耶稣的形象,还有祂爱及怜悯的价值观。在这一次的默祷中,让我们允许自己再次接受天主的挚爱,并且因忠诚地效仿耶稣而拥有喜乐。

省思题:
耶稣是否通过我的言行举止塑造我的生命?
