Today's gospel 
 *John 8: 51-59*

 *Reflection* 

Through Christ, God offers us an unbreakable covenant of love. When God established a relationship with Abraham, he offered him an unbreakable everlasting covenant. (Genesis 17:7). Jesus came to fulfill that covenant so that we could know the living God and be united with him both now and for all eternity. God made us to know him and to be united with him and he gives us the gift of faith and understanding so that we may grow in the knowledge of what he has accomplished for us through his Son, Jesus Christ.

 *Prayer* 
Loving Jesus, thank you for your words, which are a source of life and hope. As you said, "Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever keeps my word will never see death," I place my trust in you and your promises. Help me to abide in your word, to listen to your teachings, and to live in accordance with your will, so that I may experience the fullness of life you offer. May my heart be open to your truth, and may I be a witness to your love and grace in this world. *Amen* .
