Thursday within the Easter octave: 9th April, 2015
Acts 3: 11-26; Lk 24:35-48
Understanding the Scriptures was an essential part of realising their identity for the disciples. From yesterday we see the Risen Lord take upon himself the task of opening their minds to the scriptures, because it was from that understating that they were able to make sense of all that they were going through. Once clarified, their identity was extraordinarily strong and they accomplished feats that nobody would imagine. That is the power of clear and specific identity.
The questions today to us: what is our identity? What does the Scripture say? Do we spend time listening to the Lord speak in and through the Scripture? Do we seek the the understanding of the Lord to make sense of what It has to offer us? Do we believe that the Scripture speaks to us and the Lord acts through us?
