DGeMs- Daily Gospel eMessage

Dear Friend in the Lord,

Jesus and God the Father: In today’s Gospel, Jesus proclaimed to Thomas the apostle, “I am in the Father and the Father is in me.”  Ponder on, “The divine mysteries are beyond our human understanding.  So, God sent Jesus to reveal the Truth of Salvation.  Pray for the grace to deepen your faith daily, especially during the painful challenges of life.”

Fr Philip Heng, S.J.

John 14:6-10a, 13-14

Jesus said to Thomas: ‘I am the Way; I am Truth and Life. No one can come to the Father except through me. If you know me, you will know my Father too. From this moment you know him and have seen him.’

Philip said, ‘Lord, let us see the Father and then we shall be satisfied.’

‘Have I been with you all this time, Philip,’ said Jesus to him, ‘and you still do not know me?’

‘To have seen me is to have seen the Father, so how can you say, “Let us see the Father”?  Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me?

‘Whatever you ask for in my name I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask for anything in my name, I will do it.’
